User interface enhancement

[MMaatteejj]

1. Option to hide inactive neurons. These are already in a different color so hiding them entirely should be straightforward.

2. Option to show neuron charge in numbers (not just in color). On this and the next, there isn’t really enough room to put text in the neuron disks. What about a tool-tip? This is a bit tricky because you can’t attach a tool-tip to every neuron for performance reasons. You’d have use the event conterminous to each object to set up and display the info

3. Option to show synapse weight in numbers (not just in color).

4. When selecting a neuron, highlight also neurons in and out synapses. This will help make sure synapses are correctly connected and help understanding the connections. Good idea as an option like “All Synapses”

5. Use of different line/circle types for different types of neurons and synapses. OK

6. Add redo command. Don’t know how tough this would be.Just for reversing undo:)  You just have to save the undo when it is performed, right now, that info is discarded.

6.1. Add undo and redo command on toolbar. Good idea

7. When neuron fires highlight also activated synapses (out synapses). Like making them wider for a moment? Yes, Something like that. Anything that will indicate that these synapse is being used/fired.

8. Add one cycle step back command. This will be difficult Add more keyboard shortcut for stepping the one cycle execution. This would be easy.

9. When synapses overlap show different line width and add the possibility to choose which one user wants to select. This is not so necessary when synapses get selected with selecting neurons.
