Hi everyone,

I asked this question a while back but didn't get any answer. Just wondering which library, or framework, did Cytoscape use to achieve the window docking capability? I have been looking around but haven't found anything easy to use so far. Any recommendations to Java based window docking frameworks will be appreciated. Thank you very much!

Best wishes,

Hi.

Currently, we are using our own docking panel framework called CytoPanel.  It was because we could not find good docking framework distributed under compatible license (GPL code cannot be a part of Cytoscape core, since we use LGPL).

Probably there are some new frameworks today, like NetBeans RCP, but we are not going to replace it until 3.1 or later.

Hi Kei,

Is there anyway to use this Cytopanel as a docking framework to use in other swing applications? Thank you.
