+ ## Direction in subgraphs
+
+With the graphtype flowcharts you can use the direction state4ment to set the direction which the subgraph will render like in this example.

 ## Interaction
 
 It is possible to bind a click event to a node, the click can lead to either a javascript callback or to a link which will be opened in a new browser tab. **Note**: This functionality is disabled when using `securityLevel='strict'` and enabled when using `securityLevel='loose'`.
