CytoPanels are floatable / dockable panels designed to cut down on the number of pop-up windows within Cytoscape and to 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. Now with CytoPanels, we can now show these node details in an embedded CytoPanel. 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 CytoPanel. attachment:cytopanel-default.png
