C'''ytoPanels 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 P'''lugIn enables users to click on a node and immediately view node details in a pop-up window. Now with C'''ytoPanels, we can now show these node details in an embedded C'''ytoPanel. 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 C'''ytoPanel. C''''''ytoPanels 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. The following screenshot shows the galFiltered.sif file loaded into Cytoscape. In C''''''ytoPanel 1, the C''''''ytoPanel on the left-hand side of the screen, the Network Manager, Network Overview, and Cytoscape Editor have been loaded. In addition, in CytoPanel 2, the Node Attribute Browser has been loaded.

What are CytoPanels?

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. The following screenshot shows the galFiltered.sif file loaded into Cytoscape. In CytoPanel 1, the CytoPanel on the left-hand side of the screen, the Network Manager, Network Overview, and Cytoscape Editor have been loaded. In addition, in CytoPanel 2, the Node Attribute Browser has been loaded.

The user can then chose to resize, hide or float the left CytoPanel. For example, in the screenshot below, the user has chosen to float CytoPanel 1:
