What are Cyto Panels?
Cyto Panels are floatable / dockable panels, which will be available in Cytoscape 2.2. We built the Cyto Panel API to cut down on the number of pop-up windows within Cytoscape, and create a more unified user experience. For example, in Cytoscape 2.1, the cPath Plugin enables users to click on a node and immediately view node details in a pop-up window. Using the Cyto Panel API, we can now show these node details in an embedded Cyto Panel, and present a more integrated experience to the user. For example, the image below shows a screenshot of the latest BioPax Plugin. When you click on a node, the node details appear directly in the left Cyto Panel.

The user can then chose to resize, hide or float the left Cyto Panel. For example, in the screenshot below, the user has chosen to float the left Cyto Panel:

Basic Usage
Cytoscape 2.2 now includes three Cyto Panels: Cyto Panel 1 (appears on the left), Cyto Panel 2 (appears on the right), and Cyto Panel 3 (appears on the bottom). By default, only Cyto Panel 1 will appear, and it will automatically contain the network list and bird's eye view component. The other panels will be hidden by default.
The end-user (or a plugin writer, for that matter) can show any panel via the new CytoPanel menu, or via keyboard accelerator short-cuts.
