A small example of how you can structure data in graph files.

/* An example of the .graph file format */

Model {
    
    Id { "Basic Component" }
    
    Shape {
        0  0  50 10  70 40
       84 31   6 12   1 23
    }
    
    Density { 0.4 }
    
    Position {
        X { -4 }
        Y {  3 }
        z { 10 }
    }
}
