Qanava is a library built on top of the standard QT QCanvas to enable graphical display of graphs and other relational structures.

Build:

Just generate makefiles with the 'qmake' command, and launch the build with 'make'. The compilation has been tested successfully with GCC 3.3.6, GCC 4.0.0 and QT 3.3.4.

There is no dependencies outside of Trolltech QT.

Installation:

There is currently no automated installation system since this package is a preview version that is not stable enough to be used in production software.

Here are some key features of "Qanava":
Describe and layout simple graphs (with less than a few thousand nodes).
Draw grids and graphical elements with various visual attributes on a QT canvas to model nodes.
Provide ways to select nodes, display tooltips and manage zooming and navigation on the canvas.

Requirements:
Trolltech QT

What's New in This Release:
Qanava is now using QT 4.2.0 (PR1) and the new GraphicsView framework. A library has been added as a repository for widgets used to display graph features, such as styles or nodes list. Custom nodes attributes can now be added to nodes trough the graph interface. An abstract factory system allows the registration of custom nodes to be displayed in the graph view. New samples demonstrate styles modifications, and how to display custom nodes and custom nodes attributes (9/11 social graph).
