Adjust Open File for varying network modes (GRN/PPI) #1066

Open dondi opened 7 months ago

dondi commented 7 months ago

The Open File functionality needs to support PPIs more “natively” than they do now. Specifically:

In addition, instead of having the Network Mode lock in which files can be opened, would it be possible for the open-file command itself to determine the Network Mode based on the selected file? e.g., if the user picks a GraphML file, then we switch to GRN network mode for sure. Also if opening a demo, we can switch the Network Mode automatically at that time

For .sif files, an edge label of pp indicates a PPI. Thus, “pre-reading” a .sif can also set Network Mode upon opening
