2. Launch CellDesigner.
3. In the Menu, click Plugin.
4. Verify that the plugin you have just added is listed.

To use Sample Plugin1:

Sample Plugin1 creates a new Generic Protein and places it on the specified position on the Draw area. It also obtains information (name, id, x- and y- coordinates) from an existing component in the Draw area.

1. In the Menu, click Plugin, and select Sample Plugin1, then Open Sample Plugin1 dialog.
2. Species Information dialog opens.

Note: When no model is open in the Draw area, the New Document dialog will open first. After clicking OK, the Species Information dialog will appear. This is a common procedure for the other plugins as well as ”Sample Plugin1”.

3. Type in values in Name, X, and Y textboxes.
4. Click ADD to draw a new Generic Protein.
5. Or, select an existing component in the Draw area and click GET to obtain the name, id, X-, and Y-cooridinate.
