Should we allow users to modify existing connectors? #838

Open tomka opened 9 years ago

Apparently, it happens from time to time that pre-synaptic sites and post-synaptic sites of connectors are not correctly identified. To fix this the users who have permission on the connected skeletons would have to change the connection.

I wonder if it might be better to allow either a) all users to modify what is pre-synaptic and what is post-synaptic ("the arrows") or b) the users involved in one of the skeletons connected to modify all connections.

Specifically what has been asked is the ability to move the isolated pre- or postsynaptic nodes to place them more towards the center of the sectioned neuron. Nothing about deleting them.

No, I am actually referring not to moving isolated pre- or postsynaptic nodes. I was asked today if it was possible to make corrections to existing connectors where the pre- and postsynaptic nodes have been labeled/connected wrongly. E.g. user A marked a node as presynaptic to a connector, but user B realizes that user A was wrong and another node is the presynaptic one. User B now would like to correct this mistake by making this other node the presynaptic one and connecting user A's node as postsynaptic.
