I am wondering what determines what files end up in graph view?
I’ve imported existing folders (git repos) as vaults. Some times I get a completely cluttered graph with all files showing up. Sometimes I get nothing. If I then add a file and use internal references to point to an existing PDF it suggests the right tags, but the PDF still does not show up in the graph view. Looking at posts on excluding/including folders in graph view it works with the Filter option, but thats not including new files.
What I am trying to do
When adding a file, I can add existing PDFs that show up in the tree structure on the left, but they do not show up in graph view.
Thanks for the suggestion. It was toggled off and now I switched it on. But after the restart nothing changed. The files that I am refering to in the text are of the type
This and that paper [[name_of_the_paper.pdf]] contains this and that info.
In fact the name_of_the_paper.pdf is suggested by Obsidian via auto completion. So it seems to know about the file? It just does not crate a link in the graph view.
Also in the preview pane I have a wonderful preview on the papers (cool feature by the way;-)).
It seems to be really about what ends up in the graph. I tried to check out the .obsidian folder but did not undertand what info goes into the graph.json and worksapce.
