      <h1 class="SECT1"><a name="NEW_GRAPH_TREES"></a>Graph Trees</h1>

      <p>A graph tree can be thought of as a hierarchical way of organizing your graphs. Each graph tree consists of zero or more headers or branch nodes that contain leaf nodes such as graphs or trees. Multiple graph trees or branches within a single tree can be combined to form a very powerful way of organizing your graphs.</p>

      <div class="SECT2">
        <h2 class="SECT2"><a name="NEW_GRAPH_TREE"></a>Creating a Graph Tree</h2>

        <p>To create a new graph tree, select the <span class="GUILABEL">Graph Trees</span> menu item under the <span class="GUILABEL">Management</span> header. Select <span class="GUILABEL">Add</span> on this page to create a new tree. The following page will prompt you for a tree name, which will be used to identify the graph tree throughout Cacti. Once you type a name, click the <span class="GUILABEL">Create</span> button to continue. You will be redirected to a page similar to the one below, but without all of the items.</p>

        <div class="FIGURE">
          <a name="IMG_GRAPH_TREE_NEW"></a>

            <p><img src="images/graph_tree.png"></p>
          </div>
        </div>

        <p>To start adding items to your tree, click add in the <span class="GUILABEL">Tree Items</span> box. There are currently three different types of tree items you can choose from: header, graph, or host. Simply choose the type you want, fill in the value for that type, and click <span class="GUILABEL">Create</span> to make your new graph tree item. Clicking the <span class="GUILABEL">Add</span> link to the right of any branch will add the new item below that branch, you can change the branch that any item belongs to by changing its <span class="GUILABEL">Parent Item</span> field.</p>
