Team:UC Berkeley Tools/Notebook/Nade's Notebook

This is the notebook of Nade Sritanyaratana. I got involved in iGEM through word of my instructor. I am a 4th year undergraduate at UC Berkeley in Bioengineering with a concentration in imaging, and I hope to apply for a PhD graduate program in the upcoming year. My prior research experience consists of working with bioengineering professor Steven Conolly in the summer and fall of 2007. Beyond imaging, my academic interests include biomechanics; signals and systems; circuit analysis; systems biology; and linear optimization.
My primary role as a Tools Team member is to produce connections to plug into Clotho's core infrastructure; that is, to make functional tools that communicate with Clotho's "command center". Clotho is a project that my post-doc, Doug Densmore, had initiated as one of his side projects. It implements his notion of Platform-Based Design, which involves the optimal interaction between the Application-space and Architecture-space of a program (see Platform Based Design in more detail). This notebook will be used to document any noteworthy updates on my progress in the UCB Tools Team.

This is my first post in my notebook. Project Clotho has been really fun so far. I finally finished (the first draft) of the help window. Hopefully for the next assignment I don't take over four days again to finish!
My bio should be finished and ready to send to Doug. Once it's up I'll post the link.

Doug has now assigned me to work on the Features Library, Features Connection, and gave me permission to mess with the Sequence View Tools frame. Expect pictures soon.
June 16, 2008
Here's the first draft of the Sequence View Tools. Primitive for now, but constructed so to be easy to add buttons and connectors and such later on.
Also ready to display is my envisioning of the Features library window. It will look very similar to the NetBeans 6.1 interface for managing Java libraries, simply because I like the customizability and sleekness of their window.
Still working on the Features Connection. Currently I'm placing priority to finish the Features Library and a new helper, ClothoFileChooser, which will, as named, act as a file chooser akin to Windows explorer. Priority was given because both were requested from Doug and Matt.

Doug's been out this week as he gets married on Friday. This translates to many good news and a tinge of the bad.
Good news: Doug's gets married. We get off of going to lab for a full week.
Bad news: I've honestly been goofing off the past two days.
The filechoosers are all done, for now. I doubt a picture would really tell you much, 'cuz you've all probably seen a filechooser before. I'm working on fleshing out that features library now, as well as the features connection. Hopefully they'll be near done by Monday.
July 1, 2008
Been a while since my last update. I've been reworking through a bunch of ClothoHelper extensions and creating a few more, like highlighting, underlining, shrinking highlights, filechoosers, highlight data storage, etc.
I've mostly been working on file i/o with my ClothoLibraryConnection, which I'd posted before. I have also created a few new frames for "new library" and "add feature". Once they're fully functional (and I have more time) I'll gladly post the visuals :). Oh! And I made some leaf/node graphics for my help window in the JListPane. Will also show, soon =).
Recently also just got a camera (Canon Rebel EOS XTi!). I've been hugging it constantly for the last three days. Expect some good changes to the wiki soon :).
July 7, 2008
So perhaps those good changes to the wiki will have to wait. We're currently in some sort of coding bum rush because testing begins the 14th. So long story short: this week is going to be quite the week for me :). For now though, behold the very first real-life picture uploaded to this wiki of inarguably our best teammate -
I bring you Homer Simpson.
My Wiki How-to
Uploading and displaying images
Here's where I first learned how to upload images: Team:Hawaii/Wiki_Help
Props to Hawaii team!
More information was found at Wikipedia: How to edit a page
If you're having trouble first uploading an image, click your edit link, (LITERALLY) type in [[Image: imagename.jpg]] where you want the image, save the page, and you'll find the upload link back on the edited page! You can add modifiers to the image, as found on the Hawaii team and wiki links above.
How to link to other pages
I found how to post links at "How to edit a page" (see my "Uploading and displaying images" above). There's also a built-in button on top of the text view when editing a page for posting links.
Internal links
| Instructions: | For urls within igem 2008, you can type in: | [[The pathname that follows after "title="]] |
|---|---|---|
| Example: | For the Hawaii Wiki Help page, I typed: | [[Team:Hawaii/Wiki_Help]] |
External links
| Instructions: | For outside links, you can type: | [url [space] name] |
| Example: | i.e., for the "Wiki: How to edit a page", I typed: | [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page#Links_and_URLs Wikipedia: How to edit a page]. |
That name modifier works as well for the local page format.
