addCyEdge

Description

Given a CytoscapeWindow containing a (possibly empty) graph, this method adds a edge. Edge attributes are added separately, via successive calls to sendEdgeAttributesDirect. The two nodes must already exist in the Cytoscape network.

Usage

addCyEdge(obj, sourceNode, targetNode, edgeType, directed)

Arguments

obj a CytoscapeWindowClass object.
sourceNode a character string object.
targetNode a character string object.
edgeType a character string object.
directed a boolean object.

Value

None.
