# Graph view

> Read and navigate the Paradime lineage graph: filter by node type, control upstream and downstream depth, refocus, and click through to any asset.

The **Graph** view renders lineage as an interactive DAG. Nodes are colored by type (for example sources, models, and tests) and flow from upstream on the left to downstream on the right.

## Control what's shown

* **Upstream / downstream depth**: two inputs set how many levels to show in each direction. Enter a number, or `+` for all levels, then click **Update** to redraw the graph. (Depth changes are applied on demand, not automatically, because deep graphs are expensive to compute.) Start shallow and expand as needed on large projects.
* **Node types**: filter the graph to specific kinds of node (models, sources, tests, BI assets, and so on). The filter is aware of your connected integrations.

## Move around the graph

* **Click a node** to open that asset's detail view; **Cmd/Ctrl-click** opens it in a new tab.
* **Refocus**: re-lay-out the graph around the current asset if it drifts out of view.
* **Zoom and pan** with the on-canvas controls to explore dense areas.
* **Fullscreen**: expand the graph to the full height of the screen for complex DAGs, and collapse it again when you're done.

<Tip>
  Prefer a flat, exportable view of the same dependencies? Switch to the [List view](/products/data-catalog/lineage/list-view).
