Wandora's tiling graph generator creates simple Topic Maps graphs that resemble regular polygon tilings. Available graph tilings are:
- Square tiling
- Triangular tiling
- Hexagonal tiling
Tiling generator starts with option File > Generators > Tiling graph generator.... Tiling graphs can be used to model chemical structures such as graphite, graphene and carbon nanotubes for example.

[edit] Square tiling
Square tiling generator creates a rectangle tiling of given width and height. Square tiling is a graph where each vertex is connected to
- four other vertices if vertex is inside the graph.
- three other vertices if vertex is on the edge of the graph.
- two other vertices if vertex is one of the four corners of the graph.
Gives a graph topic map
[edit] Triangular tiling
Triangular tiling generator creates a triangular graph form of given height. Triangular tiling is a graph where each vertex is connected to
- six other nodes if vertex is inside the graph.
- four other nodes if vertex is on the edge of the graph.
- two other nodes if the vertex is one of the three corners of the graph.
gives you a graph
[edit] Hexagonal tiling
Hexagonal tiling generator creates a triangular graph form of given height. Hexagonal tiling is a graph where each node is connected to
- three other nodes if the node is inside the graph.
- two other nodes if the node is on the edge.
- one other node if the node is one of the three corners of the graph.
gives you a graph

- To visualize the tiling graph, you can try the Graph topic panel or the Processing topic panel or the D3 graph service module.
- To export the graph:
- Cylinder graph generator
- Lattice graph generator
