Editing Tools
The main editor for WikiPathways is PathVisio. You can also edit data node annotation and style directly at WikiPathways using the QuickEdit feature.
- To edit a pathway, click the Edit pathway button on any pathway page to launch PathVisio with the pathway in question loaded.
- To make data node edits in QuickEdit, use the QuickEdit feature available in each pathway.
For detailed information on how to use the above options, see Editing Pathways.
