Fetching Many Hops With New Limits

The limits are always applied.

In this case, the user can modify the limits before fetching many hops. Users can set the limits once and use fetch over and over again without modifying the limits every time.

To fetch many hops with new limits:

Highlight one or more entities of interest.

Right-click on the entity to display the context menu, and choose

Fetch Many Hops

. Alternatively, go to the HM Tool bar and click the

Fetch Many Hops

The Fetch Many Hops dialog box, which allows you to set limits, is displayed.

You can modify any of the following fetch criteria:

Fetch Criteria	Description
Maximum relationships per entity	Maximum number of relationships to fetch from the starting entities.
Maximum relationships levels	Maximum number of relationship levels to fetch per entity
Maximum total number of relationships	Maximum total number of relationships to fetch for the whole graph.
