	Zoom in.
	Zoom out.
	Select a rectangle to zoom on.
	Display all data.
	Enter create node mode. Drag a rectangle in the work area to create a new node. Select node type from the drop-down list.
	Enter create-link mode. In the work area, select the first node and drag the mouse to the second node. Select link type from the drop-down list.
	Toggle-oriented or unoriented links.
	Enter connection-point edition mode. Select a node (the green one for instance), and move an existing connection point, or create a new connection point. Once created, links can be attached to this point.
