Re: [cytoscape-helpdesk] How can I insert my own background image?

[Alexander Pico]

You can now do this in Cytoscape 3.0. Graphical annotations is one of the new features, in fact.  Once you have your network open:

1. Right-click on background

2. Add>Image Annotation

3. Choose image file

4. Drag out initial size

5. Right-click on annotation

6. Edit>Reorder Annotations>Push Annotation to Background Canvas

7. Edit>Move or Resize to your preference

Hi,

Being a total Cytoscape newbie, I am quite confident that my problem can be solved very easily...:-)
I'm trying to change the background image of the network I'm working on - I don't just want to change the background color but to insert a picture of my own (such that I can directly drag the components of the network on this background picture (which is a geographic map in this case) and put them at specific locations on the map).

I would greatly appreciate any help on this!

Thanks a lot,
Mela

Hi Alex,

Thank you so much - you're my hero of the day :-) I downloaded Cytoscape 3.0 (I only had the 2.8 version before) and your step-by-step instructions work perfectly!

Thanks again for your help,
Melanie

Hi Alex, I need to programatically add annotations into a view. Is there a way to perform this in Cytoscape v3.0.2 (I have actually downloaded the beta version Cytoscape v3.1)?

Thanks
