| == Overview == AutoAnnotate is a Cytoscape App that finds clusters and visually annotates them with labels and groups. These visualizations provide a concise visual summary which is helpful for network analysis and interpretation. AutoAnnotate started as a feature of the EnrichmentMap App but has since been extracted into its own standalone App. == Getting Started (Installing) == Requirements * Cytoscape minimum version 3.3 * WordCloud minimum version 3.1.0 * clusterMaker2 minimum version 0.9.5 Installation * Install Cytoscape * If you don’t have Cytoscape please download and install the latest release from http://www.cytoscape.org/download.php. * Install AutoAnnotate * Open Cytoscape * In the main menu select '''Apps > App Manager''' * In the '''App Manager''' select '''AutoAnnotate''' in the list of '''All Apps''' and click the '''Install''' button. * The '''WordCloud''' app will also be installed automatically along with AutoAnnotate * Install clusterMaker2 (optional, but highly recommended) * In the '''App Manager''' select '''clusterMaker2''' in the list of '''All Apps''' and click the '''Install''' button. Alternatively AutoAnnotate and clusterMaker2 can be installed from the App Store website. * AutoAnnotate on the App Store: * clusterMaker2 on the App Store: http://apps.cytoscape.org/apps/clustermaker2 == Creating an Annotation Set == * Start by selecting a network view. * In the main menu select '''Apps > AutoAnnotate > New Annotation Set…''' * The '''Create Annotation Set''' dialog will open. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_1.png||width=400}} === Create Annotation Set Dialog === * This dialog is used to select the options for creating an Annotation Set. * Note: AutoAnnotate can detect if the network was created by EnrichmentMap, and if so sensible options for EnrichmentMap networks will be pre-selected. * Note: You may manually edit the contents and labels of the clusters after the Annotation Set is created, and you may create as many Annotation Sets as you like, so its not critical to get everything perfect at this step. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_2.png||width=300}} * Label Column * Select the Node Column of type String that will be used to calculate the cluster labels. * Cluster Options * Use clusterMaker App * If this is selected then clusterMaker will be used to calculate the clusters. * Cluster algorithm: * Used to select the clustering algorithm provided by clusterMaker that will be used to calculate the clusters. * Edge weight column: * Some clusterMaker algorithms use edge weights. This box is used to select the Edge Column to use for the edge weights. If the selected algorithm does not use edge weights then this box will be disabled (greyed out). * Use existing clusters * You may provide your own clusters or use another clustering app to calculate the clusters. In this case the clusters must already be calculated and cluster identifiers must be stored in a Node Column. * Any Node Column of discrete type may be used to identify the clusters. (String, Integer, Long Integer, Boolean, or Lists of any of those types.) * If you select a column of List type then the clusters may overlap. * Layout nodes by cluster * If select then a special layout will run that lays out the network according to the clusters. * This layout may be run later so its not important to select this option at this point. * Click '''Create Annotations''' to create the new Annotation Set. '''WARNING:''' AutoAnnotate will manage all of the annotations and groups for the current network view. It is not recommended to manually create annotations or groups on a network view that has Annotation Sets. This is because AutoAnnotate may erase manually created annotations as you work with your Annotation Sets. If you would like to manually create annotations at any time please duplicate the network view. == Panels == * When an Annotation Set is created the AutoAnnotate panels will be shown. * Note: To show or hide the AutoAnnotate panels at any time go to the main menu and select '''Apps > AutoAnnotate > (Show/Hide) AutoAnnotate'''. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_3.png||width=500}} * In the '''Control Panel''' on the left side is the main '''AutoAnnotate''' panel. * This panel is used to manage Annotation Sets and Clusters. * In the '''Results Panel''' on the right side is the '''AutoAnnotate Display''' panel. * This panel is used to modify the look of the annotations. == Changing Display Options == This '''AutoAnnotate Display''' panel shows display options for the currently selected Annotation Set. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_4.png||width=180}} * Border width * Slider that adjusts the width of the cluster annotation borders. * Opacity * Slider that adjusts the opacity of the cluster annotation fill color. * Slide to the left for completely transparent. Slide to the right for completely opaque. * Font Size * by cluster size * When selected the size of the label will be relative to the number of nodes in the cluster. Larger clusters will have larger labels. * When deselected all the clusters will have the same size labels. * Slider is used to adjust the font size. * Shape * There are two available shapes: Ellipse or Rectangle * Hide Clusters * Select to hide all cluster shape annotations. * Hide Labels * Select to hide all cluster labels. == Managing Annotation Sets == The main AutoAnnotate panel is used to manage Annotation Sets. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_5.png||width=300}} * At the top of the panel is a '''dropdown box''' that allows you to switch between all of the Annotation Sets that have been created for the current network view. * Select the (none) option to clear all annotations from the view. * Select an Annotation Set to show all the annotations and labels in that set. * When switching between Annotation Sets all the annotations in the view will be erased and then drawn again. * Similarly when switching Annotation Sets any collapsed groups will be expanded. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_6.png||width=300}} * Next to the dropdown box is the menu button. Click this button to show the Annotation Set Menu. * New Annotation Set… * Shows the New Annotation Set dialog. * Rename * Renames the current annotation set * Delete... * Deletes the current annotation set * Collapse All * Collapses all the clusters * Expand all * Expands all the clusters * Layout Clusters * Runs a special layout algorithm that lays out the clusters in a way that looks good for the annotations. * Redraw annotations * Sometimes the annotations may need to be redrawn. * Recalculate Labels * Can be used to recalculate all the labels, typically when the WordCloud options change. More on this later in this guide. == Managing Clusters in the AutoAnnotate Panel == On the main AutoAnnotate panel you will find the '''Cluster Table'''. * This table shows each cluster, along with its label, the number of nodes in the cluster and a checkbox icon that indicates if the cluster has been collapsed. * Click on a table header to sort the table by that column. Most of the cluster options are available using the context menu of the cluster table. * Start by selecting one or more clusters in the cluster table. * To select multiple clusters hold the Shift key to select a range or hold the Ctrl/Command key to select individual clusters. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_7.png||width=250}} * Right click with he mouse to show the '''cluster table context menu'''. * Rename… * Enabled when 1 cluster is selected. * Manually set the label for the cluster. * Delete * Delete the cluster annotations * Note: This does not delete the nodes or edges in the cluster, just the annotations. * Merge * Enabled when 2 or more clusters are selected. * Merges the clusters into a single cluster. * A new label for the merged cluster is automatically calculated. * Extract Clusters… * Creates a new Annotation Set consisting of the selected clusters. * Collapse * Collapses the selected clusters * Expand * Expands the selected clusters * Recalculate Labels * Recalculates the labels for the selected clusters. == Managing Clusters in the Network View == {{attachment:aa_user_guide_11.png||width=500}} * Manually create a cluster * Select some nodes in the network view, right click to show the context menu, and select '''Apps > AutoAnnotate > Create Cluster'''. * A new cluster is created. * A label for the cluster is automatically calculated. * The cluster is selected in the cluster table. * Deleting a node in an existing cluster will remove the node from the cluster. * A new label is calculated. == Collapsing and Expanding Clusters == Clusters can be collapsed or expanded from the '''Annotation Set Menu''' or the '''Cluster Table Context Menu'''. {{attachment:aa_user_guide_9.png||width=400}} * Before collapsing clusters make sure that node aggregation is enabled. If not enabled then collapsed clusters may not have a label. * In the main menu select '''Edit > Preferences > Group Preferences'''. * In the '''Group Preferences''' dialog select the option for '''Enable Attribute Aggregation'''.  {{attachment:aa_user_guide_8.png||width=400}} * When a cluster is collapsed a group node is created that contains the cluster and it is collapsed. The annotation for the cluster is not shown when the cluster is collapsed. * When a cluster is expanded the group node is expanded and then deleted. The annotation is show again. * It is not recommend to manually collapse or expand clusters using the Groups menu as this may confuse AutoAnnotate. * When switching between Annotation Sets all collapsed clusters are automatically expanded. == Working with WordCloud == Labels for clusters are generated by the WordCloud app. * You may change the label generation options from the WordCloud panel. * In the main menu select '''Apps > WordCloud > Show WordCloud'''. * In the WordCloud panel you can change the label options, for example using the '''Normalize''' slider. * Back in the AutoAnnotate panel select '''Recalculate Labels''' to regenerate labels using the updated WordCloud options. == Saving and Restoring a Session with Annotation Sets == * There are currently some limitations in Cytoscape with regards to saving and restoring annotations and groups in a session file. * For this reason when you save your session all the clusters must be expanded first. This is planned to be fixed in future versions of Cytoscape and AutoAnnotate. * When you restore a session it defaults back to (none) for each Network View. Simply select the annotation set again to redraw the annotations. == Additional Options == AutoAnnotate has various warning dialogs that can be dismissed permanently by selecting '''"don’t show this again"'''. If you would like to see these warnings again they can be re-enabled. In the main menu select '''Edit > Preferences > Properties''', then select '''org.baderlab.autoannotate''' in the Properties Dialog.  {{attachment:aa_user_guide_10.png||width=300}} == Filing Bug Reports and Requesting Enhancements == Thank you for using AutoAnnotate.
