The INOH Client
User’s Operational Manual
The INOH System is designed through the adoption of the client-server-based Web services, being divided into the server's software and the client's software which is designed to access the server's one.
This manual gives a description of how to use the client's software, the INOH Client.
The INOH Client is the client software for retrieving diagram data from a signaling pathway database system and editing them.
The screen of the INOH Client
You can search a database for diagram data, download and read the data into your local machines with this software.
The read diagram data can be displayed on the graphical user interface screen, and then be easily edited with intuitive operations.
The resultant data may be recorded as files in your local machine (the local files).
The INOH Client can easily edit signaling pathway diagrams using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) with a mouse.
Main functions of the Diagram editing are listed below.
- Creating nodes
- Creating edges
- Creating compound nodes (Grouping) and canceling the compound nodes (De-grouping)
- Cutting, Copying, Pasting, and Deleting the above objects (nodes and/or edges)
- Moving the above objects with a mouse
- Editing the properties of the above objects using the Property Panel
- Scaling the view of the diagram
- Reduced view of the diagram
- Storing and reading the diagram data
-
Editing concurrently two or more diagrams with the tab-based multi document interface
Main functions of the Search capability are listed below.
- Keyword searches
- Pathway retrieval
- Search by INOH Ontology viwer
- Search external DBs
Java 6(JDK 1.6.0) or later and the system on which the Java's GUI program can operate are required.
The implementation of 256 MB or more of Memory is recommended.
The software was checked on Windows XP SP2, Red Hat Linux and Mac OS X + Java 6. No tests on other platforms.
- On Mac OS X, you can't use "Select all" of Edit menu.
- On Mac OS X, you can't use "Change node type" and "Change edge type" of Object menu. Please use "Change node type" and "Change edge type" of Toolbar or Pop-up Menu(mouse click with pressing Ctrl key).
- On Mac OS X 10.5(Leopard), "Find", "Keyword/ID search", "Similarity search", "Pathway retrieval" of Search menu can't work properly when you invoke INOH client by double clicking INOH client icon.
Please invoke INOH client from shell of Terminal application by setting Java 6 properly. Or please use Mac OS X 10.6(Snow Leopard).
You may install the software according to the procedure directed on the page for downloading the INOH Client in the INOH Project's Website (http://www.inoh.org/).
The outlines of installing are shown below. You should refer to the above-mentioned Website for detailed operations.
For Windows, double-click “install.exe.”
For Unix-based OS, execute “cd” command to move to the directory including “inslall.bin", and then execute the following command.
sh./install.bin
For Mac OS X, double-click “install.zip”and double-click “install” which is expanded from “install.zip”.
Directories which the INOH Client uses are discussed below.
If you install the INOH Client to the INOH_CLIENT_HOME directory, the related directories under the INOH_CLIENT_HOME are configured as below.
- INOH_CLIENT_HOME/bin-sample
This directory includes samples of batch files and shell scripts which execute the INOH Client.
- INOH_CLIENT_HOME/doc
This is the directory for documents.
- INOH_CLIENT_HOME/lib
This directory is for various libraries which the INOH Client uses.
Before starting the INOH Client, you must install it correctly. In this section, the procedure is explained assuming that the INOH Client has been installed to the directory “INOH_CLIENT_HOME. ”
For Windows, execute “InohClient” from the Start menu with the same way as you start other applications, or execute “INOH_CLIENT_HOME\InohClient.exe.” “INOH_CLIENT_HOME” is usually “C:\Program Files\InohClient.”
For Unix-based OS, execute “runInohClient” in the HOME directory, or execute “INOH_CLIENT_HOME\InohClient.” “INOH_CLIENT_HOME” is usually “~/InohClient.”
For Mac OS X 10.5 or later and Java 6, double click the“InohClient”icon.
If the program will not start, re-installation may be required.
If you have downloaded the program without Java VM, ensure that the Java has been correctly installed, or try to download the program with Java VM.
To exit the INOH Client, execute “Exit” from the File menu.
The INOH Client has the following start-up options.
Note:
You can't specify these options with the executable command which was installed by installer. The executable command is 'InohClient.exe' in Windows, 'runInohClient' in Unix-based OSes.
If you want to use these options, please rewrite bacth files or script files in INOH_CLIENT_HOME/bin-sample directory.

The Pop-up menu can be displayed with the click of the right mouse button(*). Functions available at that time will be displayed in the Pop-up menu. Detailed explanation of each function is shown below.
* On Mac OS X, mouse click with pressing Ctrl key.
You can select an object by left-clicking on it.
You can select multiple objects within a rectangular region at the same time. To specify the rectangular region, left-click on a location which has no objects, keeping the mouse button pressed down, move the mouse to where you want it to be, and then release the button.
To select multiple objects successively, keeping the Shift key pressed down, click on two or more objects one by one with the left mouse button.

Next, select the desired type of the compound node from the Compound nodes Panel.
In the method 2, the procedure starts with previously selecting a compound node.
First, select the desired type of the compound node from the Compound nodes Panel.
Next, select the objects which you want to be the children.
Then right-click to display the Pop-up menu, and select "Group Selection" from the menu.
To move objects, select and move the objects, keeping the left mouse button pressed down.
To cut objects, select the objects and execute any operations listed below.
- Push the “Cut Selection” button on the Toolbar.

The pasted object as an alias is identified as the object identical to the original object at the server side.
Note：
The INOH Client assumes that the Biological attribute of the pasted object as an alias is not edited. If the attribute is edited, the object is registered as a new object when uploaded to the server.
To paste as an alias, select the object and execute any operations listed below.
To delete objects, select the objects and execute any operations listed below.

This function is used to search for objects in the current diagram.
Explanations of the Find dialog box are shown below.
Find dialog
For the “Keyword”, specify the words you want to search for.
You can specify one or more words by separating each word with a space. The system will find objects that has all the terms ("AND" search).
By enclosing the keyword in double quotes (" "), you can specify the phrase including spaces as one word.
For example, when you enter < protein genome > without enclosing in double quotes, it will be recognized as two words, < protein > and < genome >. On the other hand, when you enter < "protein genome" > with double quotes, it will be recognized as one word, < protein genome >.
To include " (double quote) itself in your keystring, escape it by quoting it with ' (single quote).
