QVPR as a directed graph - part 2

The QlikView 9 management console does not show complex dependencies between tasks , triggers, source documents. Also when deleting tasks there might be "orphaned" categories etc, not visible otherwise.

Let's render it with old and reliable Graphviz. So how does a big graph look like? For example like this (with names removed, due to usual non disclosure agreements)

In case you wonder why it looks small, you probably are using Internet Explorer and it's built-in Adobe SVG viewer. Those lack scrollbars when rendering SVG files, but one can right click and "zoom out" few times. Highly recommend to use any normal browser capable of rendering SVG such as Firefox, or Safari, or Chrome.
