The visualization plugin offers a set of functionalities to allow the user to interact with the layout.

Navigating draggin and zoom[edit]

Navigation[edit]

It is possible to navigate the layout by pressing the right mouse button and move the view arround.

Zooming[edit]

Zooming is possible using the mouse wheel or alternatively using the Zoom Panel in the right panel of the visualizer interface (more about the interface here).

Dragging[edit]

If a node is fixed it is possible to drag it to a new position. Simply press the left mouse button and drag the node to the desired position(see more about dragging, fixed and unfixed nodes here).

Highlight[edit]

It is possible to highlight nodes by hovering the mouse cursor on them.

If the node is a metabolite node, all nodes that represent the same compound will be highlighted as well.
