3. Click on Layout from the toolbar

L7.1

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Inverted Self-Organising Map Layout

Nodes are clustered but not overlapping extensively. Edges are fairly long and angular with <90° angles

L7.2

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Edge-weighted Force directed (BioLayout) → (unweighted)

Edges are very long and nodes overlap. Network arranged in arrow or comet shape

L7.3

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Degree Sorted Circle Layout → All Nodes

The nodes of the main network are arranged at a locus equidistant from the centre of the circle and sorted numerically according to Degree starting at the bottom of the circle going clockwise

L7.4

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Grid Layout → All Nodes

The nodes should be arranged in an almost square grid

L7.5

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Attribute Circle Layout → canonicalName

The nodes of the main network are arranged at a locus equidistant from the centre of the circle and sorted alphabetically according to canonicalName starting at the bottom of the circle going anti-clockwise

L7.6

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Circular Layout

Some of the nodes from the main network form a circle with branches off it

L7.7

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Group Attributes Layout → All Nodes → canonicalName

Nodes are arranged in a grid close to other nodes with similar canonicalName distributed alphanumerically

P

L7.8

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Force-Directed Layout → (unweighted)

Layout appears similar to Organic yFiles layout. Nodes and edges arranged to minimise force between them

June 4th 09

P

L7.9

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Edge-weighted Spring Embedded → (unweighted)

Layout appears similar to Organic yFiles layout. Nodes and edges arranged to minimise force between them in an unweighted manner

June 4th 09

P

L7.10

Select Cytoscape Layouts → Spring Embedded → All Nodes

Layout appears similar to Organic yFiles layout. Nodes and edges arranged to minimise force between them
