In addition to writing S-expressions, graphical delineation (use a mouse to 'draw' a region and generate an S-expression consequently) of regions and assigning dynamics (and parameters, etc) would be of great help designing cells.

You mean like the literal region rendering we are doing since day 0?

brenthuisman commented 2 years ago

No, we meant using a mouse to 'draw' a region and generate an S-expression consequently.

thorstenhater commented 2 years ago

I think that's an insane amount of work for questionable payoff, but go for it, if you have the bandwidth.

According to @llandsmeer this would be very useful, and he'd be the person to code it up (see assignees). Whether or not it's a prio or a nice-to-have-in-distant-future is something we can decide later.
