Cytoscape 3Project Website: http://www.cytoscape.org New Documentation for Cytoscape 3 is on its way... In the meantime, below is the help from the previous revision (Cytoscape 2.8) Cytoscape is an open-source bioinformatics software platform for visualizing molecular interaction networks and biological pathways, and integrating these networks with annotations, gene expression profiles, and other state data. Cytoscape core distribution provides a basic set of features for data integration and visualization. Additional features are available as plugins. Cytoscape is a Java-based application that downloads to your local machine when you launch it from GenomeSpace. Once it's downloaded to your machine (after a launch from GenomeSpace), you can start it locally (by opening the JNLP) or launch from GenomeSpace. If you launch Cytoscape from the Cytoscape website, at this time it will not be the version that is linked to GenomeSpace. Like several other applications in the GenomeSpace suite of tools, Cytoscape can be expanded with plug-ins. You can download plug-ins for your Cytoscape by choosing Plugins>Manage Plugins. Cytoscape has several GenomeSpace menu items. Logging InWhen you launch Cytoscape from GenomeSpace, your login should be handled seamlessly. If you start from your GenomeSpace-enabled JNLP of Cytoscape and want to log into GenomeSpace in order to access your Amazon cloud storage or other GenomeSpace tools, you will be asked to log in with your GenomeSpace username and password.
You can also Reset Password on your existing GenomeSpace account. Import MenuClicking File>Import>GenomeSpace provides several options for importing files from GenomeSpace.
