Class CondensedConnectionPanel

java.lang.Object

org.simbrain.network.gui.dialogs.connect.CondensedConnectionPanel

public class CondensedConnectionPanel
extends java.lang.Object

A panel that combines a DensityBasedConnectionPanel (Sparse) with a SynapsePolarityAndRandomizerPanel with the ability to create a synapse group with the given properties given a source and target neuron group. Meant for cases where a limited number of properties can be set for a given synapse group. For the very common case where a variable density, variable polarity, random synapse group is desired.

Constructor and Description
CondensedConnectionPanel(NetworkPanel networkPanel, java.awt.Window parent, int numTargs) Creates a CondensedConnectionPanel.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
SynapseGroup	createSynapseGroup(NeuronGroup source, NeuronGroup target) Creates a synapse group from the parameters in the panel and between two neuron groups.
SparseConnectionPanel	getConnectorPanel() Returns the density based connection panel so that other classes can set certain properties of the panel independent of this class.
java.awt.Component	getMainPanel() Returns the main panel where all the components are actually laid out.

Constructor Detail

CondensedConnectionPanel

public CondensedConnectionPanel(NetworkPanel networkPanel,
                                java.awt.Window parent,
                                int numTargs)

Creates a CondensedConnectionPanel.

Parameters:

networkPanel - the place where the synapse group will go

parent - for resizing

numTargs - so the DensityBasedConnectionPanel can estimate the number of efferents should the user chose to equalize them.

Method Detail

createSynapseGroup

public SynapseGroup createSynapseGroup(NeuronGroup source,
                                       NeuronGroup target)

Creates a synapse group from the parameters in the panel and between two neuron groups.

Parameters:

source - the source neuron group

target - the target neuron group

Returns:

the synapse group connecting them

getConnectorPanel

public SparseConnectionPanel getConnectorPanel()

Returns the density based connection panel so that other classes can set certain properties of the panel independent of this class.

Returns:

the density

getMainPanel

public java.awt.Component getMainPanel()

Returns the main panel where all the components are actually laid out. Doing this so that this class doesn't have to extend a Swing class and thus clutter the JavaDocs.

Returns:
