    1919If none of the above is true then we can use the default (absolute) positioning. 
    2020 
    21 To start the tool with absolute positioning we should simply type ''bin/referl'' (this is the default) or type ''bin/referl -pos abs''. To start the tool with relative positioning we should type ''bin/referl -pos rel''. 
    22 The chosen positioning mode belongs to the database and its content that we load so we have to reset the database and restart the tool with another pos option to change positioning mode or we can also use ''ri:reset/1'' with the following parameters: rel, abs.  
    23 To make it clear, lets see an easy example: if we start the tool with -pos rel and load up some directories we will have a database content with relative positioning. If we restart the tool without resetting it and using -pos abs nothing will happen, we will also have to use our relatively positioned database. If we want to setup positioning again, we have to use ri:reset/1 or ri:reset/0 and restart it.

To start the tool with relative positioning we should type ''bin/referl -pos rel''. The chosen positioning mode belongs to the database and its content that we load, but we can convert the database to change positioning mode using [[ErlangShellInterface#Manipulatingthegraph| ri:db_convert/1]] with the following parameters: rel, abs. To make it clear, lets see an easy example: if we start the tool with ''-pos rel'' and load up some directories we will have a database content with relative positioning. If we restart the tool without resetting it and using ''-pos abs'' nothing will happen, we will also have to use our relatively positioned database. If we want to change positioning to absolute mode, we will have to use ''ri:db_convert(abs)''.
