Constants
A node type that specifies a connector node.
Remarks
Each edge of the input graph that connects two nodes
v and w that are placed on different pages is split by a pair of matching connector nodes (one for each of the two pages). One of the connector nodes is connected to v and the other to w. Hence, each connector represents a jump mark to the matching connector and guarantees that no information is lost as it would be the case if such edges are simply removed.See Also
Sample Graphs
A node type that specifies a group node.
A node type that specifies a normal node.
A node type that specifies a proxy node.
Remarks
A proxy node is a copy of a normal node. It is created by the algorithm if a normal node and its neighbors or associated connectors do not fit onto a single page. Hence, in such cases, the neighbors/connectors associated with a normal node may be distributed among different proxy nodes associated with this node.

Sample Graphs
A normal node may be associated with multiple proxy nodes placed on different pages.
A node type that specifies a proxy reference node.
Remarks
For each proxy node there is exactly one matching proxy reference node (except if property createProxyReferenceNodes is disabled). The reference node refers to the proxy and is either connected to the normal node associated with this proxy or one of its other proxy nodes (a normal node may be associated with multiple proxy nodes). Hence, for a node connected to a proxy reference node there always exists a copy located on another page.
