DOT States

Use a DOT graph with labeled edges and circular nodes to show a short approval lifecycle.

dot-statesGraphviz DOT · flowchart
A draft is submitted for review; review approves it or sends it back.
The sample below, drawn with the gallery's default theme. Another theme, color scheme or variant redraws the same source in its fonts and colors.

Source syntax

Write one graph or digraph. OPF reads a bounded DOT subset and adapts it to the shared layered flowchart renderer; it does not run Graphviz or reproduce its pixels.

Alt text

A draft is submitted for review; review approves it or sends it back.

Markdown

A dot fence carries Graphviz DOT source; alt is its text alternative.

# DOT States

```dot alt="A draft is submitted for review; review approves it or sends it back."
digraph states {
  rankdir=LR
  node [shape=circle]
  Draft -> Review [label="submit"]
  Review -> Draft [label="changes"]
  Review -> Published [label="approve"]
  Published [shape=doublecircle]
}
```

Layouts That Take It

Give the slide one of these layouts to place the diagram in a region, or none to compose it automatically.
