Adding a Frame to my plugin for Cytoscape

[Franktwis]

hi all,
I would to start my plugin in Cytoscape with a GUI that gives
possibilities to initialize a Net that I build after in the code. How
can I do it? Have I simply use swing or awt in Java or there is a
cytoscape class to extend?
Is there an example for doing it?
thanks

Hi,
In the plugin developers tutorials there is one that shows how to create a panel in the control tabbedpane to the left; you can add your GUI components there, exactly like the vizmapper and network selection tabs.
Hope this helps,
Piet

Thanks Piet but I don't need this.
A tabbed pane will be a panel included in the Cytoscape GUI. I wanna
that when I launch my plugin a frame appear to give the user
possibilities to initialize the Net. Than clicking on a start button
the net will be created.
thanks the same

Hi,
I think you can accomplish this simply by adding the required initialization fields in such a panel and add a start-button to that. Alternatively you can add a menuitem and in the actionPerformed method you create a dialog including the initialization fields...
Hope this helps,
Piet

Yep, see below for some code I used...


public class AlgorithmAction extends CytoscapeAction
{
 
    public AlgorithmAction()
    {
        super("Open initialization dialog");
    }

    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
    {
        AlgorithmDialog dialog = new AlgorithmDialog();
        dialog.setVisible(true);
    }

}

public class AlgorithmDialog extends JDialog implements ActionListener, ListSelectionListener, ItemListener {


// all kinds of GUI elements and actionPerformed methods go here one of which is a startbutton

      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
        if (evt.getSource().equals(myBuildNetworkBt)) {
          Cytoscape.createNetwork("new Network");
     
}

}
