Query Builder

The Query Builder is a tool to help those new to MQL to get started building queries without having to worry about the syntax too much. Currently at version 0.5, it's still a little rough, but is enough to allow you to build a number of complex queries and then run them in the Query Editor. You can try it here.

Here are some features that might be good to do in the future:

    * Fix Auto-sizing of Panels
    * Make Pretty
    * Sort: Single Field
    * Sort: Multiple Fields
    * UI Tweaks
          o starts with "Name" checked
          o highlight selected type
          o highlight selected property
    * Parent Checkboxes Sync With Children
    * "Clear Query" Button
    * Pulldown for Constrained Values (e.g. male/female)
    * Reverse
    * Link
    * Reflect
    * Special Mediator Support
    * Optional
    * Multiple Types at Once
    * Hand-Edit Query
    * Limit Results
    * Filter: Or
    * Constraints Panel
    * Run Query in Builder
    * Advanced Display of Query Results
    * Remember Queries Between Type Changes
