CellDesigner window is now open in our Linux machine.
Point to the Main Menu bar area Notice that we are unable to see the Main menu bar clearly.


To make it visible, we have to change the system settings.

Click on 'System Settings', Click on the icon 'System Settings', located on top right corner of your machine.


Upon clicking, the System Settings page opens.

Under 'Personal' >> click on ‘Appearance'.


Under the panel 'Personal', double-click on 'Appearance'.

A window named 'Appearance' opens.

From the drop-down menu in the 'Theme' box >> select 'Radiance' >> close the window. Under the tab 'Look', go to Theme.

From the drop-down menu in the 'Theme' box, select 'Radiance' and close the window.

Notice that the Main menu bar is now clearly visible.

Let’s proceed.

Click on File >> New


Click on New icon in the menu bar.


To open a new document, click on File and then on New.


Alternately, click on the New icon in the menu bar.


Or, press Ctrl + N keys.

Type the filename as 'Create and Edit'. A dialog box New Document appears on the screen, prompting us to name the file.

Click on the Ok button at the bottom.

Click Ok.


An information box opens.


And all spaces in the name that we gave, changes to underscore.


So, the actual name of our file will be 'Create underscore and underscore Edit'.


Click Ok and proceed.

Point to the draw area. The white area in the centre is what we call the draw area.
Point to the menu bars and toolbars. We will learn about the menu bars, toolbars and various panels in detail in the coming tutorials.
Hover the mouse on Select Mode in the tool bar >> Click.


Before selecting any other icon from the toolbar, click on the Select Mode icon.


This acts as a selection tool.


With this selection tool, we can select, draw and move the components on the draw area.

Before we draw a component, we will ensure that Grid Snap and Grid Visible are enabled in CellDesigner window.
Click on Edit in the main menu bar.

Scroll down and click on Grid Snap.

For that, click on Edit in the main menu bar.

Scroll down and click on Grid Snap.

Click on Edit >> Scroll down and click on Grid Visible. Again, go back to Edit and click on Grid Visible.
Grids enable us to better align the components in the draw area.
Now let us change the position of the List & Notes area.


Recall, we already learnt about List area, Notes area and Draw area in the previous tutorial.


If you do not know, refer to the previous tutorials in this series.

Let's proceed and change the location of the List area.

It changes ‘List’ to the right side of the draw area.

The size of the areas can be altered by dragging the borderlines.


I will place the cursor on the borderline .


You can see a double headed arrow. Drag it to maximize or minimize the draw area.

We will now proceed to work on the draw area.
Before that, we should be able to view all the icons on the CellDesigner window.
Cursor on View on the main menu bar toolbar>> Change Toolbar Visible>>Show All For that, go to View on the main menu bar.


Click on Change Toolbar Visible and select the Show All option.

You are now able to see all the icons on the CellDesigner window.

Let's go ahead.

Cursor on the toolbar >> Point towards square icon >> and then click on it To represent a cell or an intracellular compartment, we will use the Square icon from the toolbar.


So, first click on it.

Click on the 'Square' icon>> Click and drag on the draw area. Then click on the draw area.


And without releasing the mouse button, drag to draw the square.


Now release the mouse button.

In the dialog box type Cell and and Size as 1.0 >> Click Ok In the 'Property of Compartment' dialog that opens, specify
  • the Name as Cell
  • and set the Size as 1.0


Click Ok.


The name appears at the bottom of the compartment.

Cursor on Name of the Compartment.


Drag and drop it wherever required.

One can change the position of the compartment name, too.


To do so, select the compartment name, which is Cell, in our case.


Now, drag and drop it wherever you want to place it.

Click on File >> Save.


Let us save this file by clicking on File and then on Save As option.

I want to save it on the Desktop.

So, I will double click on Desktop as the folder in which I want to save.


And then click on Ok button at the bottom right.


Once again, click on the OK button at the bottom right.

Our file is now saved.

Click on File >> Exit To close CellDesigner, click on File and then on Exit.


Go to the Desktop >> Point to the file


Let us now go to the folder where we saved our file.

So, I will go to my Desktop.
