You can draw new links between ports, both between nodes and within a node. Between nodes, the link validation predicate requires new link connections to connect ports of the same color. However, within a node, links may connect ports of different colors.

#### Table Panels

The "Table" Panel, Panel.Table, arranges objects in rows and columns. Each object in a Table Panel is put into the cell indexed by the value of GraphObject.row and GraphObject.column. The panel will look at the rows and columns for all of the objects in the panel to determine how many rows and columns the table should have. More information can be found in the GoJS Intro.

#### Item Arrays

It is sometimes useful to display a variable number of elements in a node by data binding to a JavaScript Array. In GoJS, this is simply achieved by binding (or setting) Panel.itemArray. The Panel will create an element in the panel for each value in the Array. More information can be found in the GoJS Intro.

#### Links

The Link class is used to implement a visual relationship between nodes. Links are normally created by the presence of link data objects in the GraphLinksModel.linkDataArray or by a parent key reference as the value of the TreeModel.nodeParentKeyProperty of a node data object in a TreeModel. More information can be found in the GoJS Intro.

#### Ports in Nodes

Specific elements of a Node at which links may connect are called ports. There may be any number of ports in a node. By default there is just one port, the whole node, which results in the effect of having the whole node act as the port. Port-like GraphObjects can only be in Nodes or Groups, not in Links or Adornments or simple Parts.
