utilize the summary view for informative, large-scale summaries #19

Use the area of the topology view to display a status summary of filter selections. Maybe show bar charts for the relative proportions (fraction of total count) of metabolites and reactions (separately) that pass filters of current selections. Also show in the center of the view a button to assemble/visualize/represent network. Any changes to entity filters or assembly options should revert this view back to the pre-assembly view.

On a related subject, I will also need controls to switch between a representation of the entire network for current entities and the subnetwork from topological traversals.

Before network visualization, also use the area of the topology view to display summary information about the metabolic entities. Consider these charts... Distributions (histogram bins) of the counts of reactions per metabolite Distributions (histogram bins) of the counts of reactions per gene Distributions (histogram bins) of the counts of metabolites per reaction These summaries could be for the current entities that pass filters.
