What's new

v3.7 [Nov 21, 2018]
-Cytoscape 3.7.1 was released as a hotfix for a freezing bug that occurred while exporting network images

v3.4 [May 21, 2016]
Cytoscape 3.4 has new user interface for browsing networks. You can choose from three view modes:
Standard View
Grid View
Detached View
Parent-child relationships of your networks are visualized as trees on the Network Panel.

v3.3 [Nov 29, 2015]
Improved network and table file importer
New icons for the toolbar
Aesthetic and consistency improvements in many dialogs.

v3.2 [Nov 10, 2014]
Performance:
- Network loading process is optimized and faster than 3.1.x.
- Improved Rendering Engine Performance.
- Rendering engine is optimized especially for large networks. Zoom/pan is more efficient and faster than past 3.x series.
- Faster Network Merge.
- Network merge function is parallelized and is much faster for large networks.
- Improved Startup Speed.
- Startup process has been optimized and startup time is shorter than 3.1.
- Improved Command/Tunable API.

v3.0 [Feb 6, 2013]
3.x is the whole new version of Cytoscape with modular architecture. It is designed for long-term maintainability and eventually it replaces 2.x series. New major features, including new user interfaces, headless (command-line) distribution, and multiple rendering engine support, will be released for this version. Currently, Cytoscape community is in the middle of transition from 2.x to 3.x. Core and third party App developers are working hard to port as much as 2.x features and Apps to 3.x series.
cytoscape.js is a successor of Cytoscape Web. cytoscape.js is a JavaScript library for network visualization, NOT a complete web application. It shares some design-level concepts with Desktop (Java) version of Cytoscape, but code base is completely independent. It is designed to be a building block for complex data visualization web applications for the HTML5 era.

v2.8 [Sep 22, 2010]
-Bug Fixes
-Improved Memory Allocation
-New Gradient Editor
-Well-Behaved CytoPanels
-Error Console Feature
