## These are wiki comments - leave them in so that people can see them when editing the page

## This template may be useful for documenting use cases 
## Developed in response to a hackathon request for formalized, detailed use cases 
##  to help direct implementation proposals

|| '''Use Case Name''' : ../ProductAppears ||
|| '''For Feature''' : MIMEditor ||
|| '''Editors''': DavidKane ||

## EXAMPLE: 
## Use Case Name: Representation of Protein Complex
## For Feature: Grouping Function
## Editors: Mr. Knowitall

<<TableOfContents([2])>>

== Summary ==
## Provide a one paragraph description of the use case

Users wants to describe a species in a pathway without complete detail to its origins 

== Step-by-Step User Action ==
## Provide a step-by-step account of how the user would execute the use case.  For example: (1) right click on node, (2) choose "expand" from context menu, (3) new view is created, etc...

 1. User specifies a protein or small molecule
 1. User specifies a product appears relationship
 1. User optionally specifies the evidence for this reaction 

== Visual Aides ==
## Provide attachments to images to illustrate the use case (screenshots, mock-ups, storyboards, etc)

The notation for this relationship is the following:

{{attachment:productsappears1_061117_dwk.PNG}}

The product that appears is on the right side of the arrow:

{{attachment:productsappears2_061117_dwk.PNG}}

Here is an example, in context:

== Requirements for Cytoscape ==
## List the components/functions already in Cytoscape that are relevant to the use case and possible implementations (e.g., "current context menus can be used accomplish step 2 above")
## Also list components/functions that are needed in Cytoscape to execute the use case (e.g., "cytoscape needs to allow for multiple views of the same network for this to work")

TBD

== Importance ==
## Describe whether this use case is critical and how frequently users would come across it.  Describe common work flows that might involve the use case (e.g., "this use case comes up regularly, on a weekly basis, whenever we want to analyze our protein superfamily networks").

This is generally important, and the notation most often appears in explicit maps.  ../TranscriptionShorthand is a special case of this notation.

== Other Examples ==
## List other applications or relevant examples outside of Cytoscape that provide some or all of the desired functionality (e.g., "You can do this using the group function in PowerPoint").
