For Feature : MIMEditor

<<TableOfContents: execution failed [Argument "maxdepth" must be an integer value, not "[2]"] (see also the log)>>

Summary

A user wants to see a Kohn representation of a BioPAX pathway.

Step-by-Step User Action

  1. User selects a BioPAX document to view
  2. The system uses an automated layout program to generate a map using the Kohn notation

Visual Aides

Requirements for Cytoscape

TBD

Importance

Although many of the use cases are cast in terms of editing, this use case could provide a good shorter-term capability that could be useful to both BioPAX-oriented users, and work out the implementation details for representing the Kohn notation.

Other Examples

Many software engineering tools have these sorts of autodraw features from underlying models. E.g. drawing a class diagram from XMI or drawing an ERD from an underlying database.

Assume this can be handled by programmatic calls to one or more of the Cytoscape automated layout routines? Is incremental/interactive layout via BubbleRouter applicable as well?
