Add Manage Enzyme Groups Functionality; Add Ability to remove/hide enzymes from the single cutter grouping.

@tnrich

In the cutsites property tab, all the single cutters are group together but there isn't a way to remove/hide one or more restriction enzymes from the single cutter grouping.Many of our users using OpenVectorEditor has requested for this functionality as they work with big list of single cutters. Many suggested to have a checkbox in the table of cutsite to hide/show the restriction enzymes.

@jjkaur If you'd like to add this specific functionality I would be more than happy to accept a PR. I am not sure I'll be able to get around to fixing this immediately as I have other priorities on my plate at the moment.

I'll let you know when that changes but for now I don't think I can fix this. Feel free to ask questions about anything if you do try to make the fix though.

Thanks for the response. I will try to make the changes and submit a PR.

[tnrich]

@jjkaur cool! Let me know how it goes

[tnrich]

@jjkaur just checking in with you. Have you made much progress?

[jjkaur]

@tnrich : Not yet. I was on vacation. I will work with Eric to see what is needed for the PR.

@jjkaur @ericsturman I have been thinking about trying to improve the enzyme management system for a bit now. I have a branch I'm trying some stuff out on. I'm still working through what the UX might be and how it might work with both localstorage and a user configured db.

Here's a little bit of what I'm thinking so far:

• Add a new "Manage Enzymes" dialog where users can create their own custom groups of enzymes
• The Manage Enzymes dialog will be accessible from the existing cutsite filter dropdown as well as from "File>Tools>Manage Enzymes" and the cutsite properties list.
• The Manage Enzymes dialog will have 3 "built-in" groups: "Common Enzymes", "All Enzymes", and "User-created Enzymes"
• Users will be able to create and save their own enzyme groups by selecting enzymes in other groups and moving them to the group of their choice:

• A list of helpful "Select..." options will allow users to quickly find the enzymes they might be looking for based on specific properties:

• Hovering an enzyme will show a preview of that enzyme in the bottom portion of the dialog:
  

• if a user has added an enzyme using the existing 'create your own enzyme' functionality, that enzyme will show up in the default "User Created Enzymes" group but will also be able to be added to other groups as desired

• The user-created enzyme groups will then be available within the Cutsite filter dropdown at the top near "Single Cutters"

• users should be able to easily uncheck any given enzyme from the currently selected group (single cutters, double cutters, my special enzyme group)
  

• there should be built-in storage of user preferences to localStorage and an exposed api for saving the groups to a desired backend (probably something like window.updateUserEnzymeGroups and window.getUserEnzymeGroups)

Please note, the screenshots provide are quite rough and have not been styled to look nice. That said, any and all feedback is welcome. I think this is generally a step in the right direction but I also think that it might take a few iterations to get the UX flowing nicely.

One thing I like about this proposal is that it keeps the simplicity of our the enzyme filter dropdown while still letting users create their own enzyme lists and do more advanced things.

I'll update this ticket when I have a v1 that people can try out.

We had to develop a custom user based restriction enzyme list tool. Our user maintains a big master list of restriction enzymes. Cloners wanted to create a smaller user based custom restriction enzyme lists based on the selection from the master list.
With the above mentioned features we will be able to remove our custom tool for the user based restriction enzyme groups. Also the ability to remove and hide the enzymes from the single cutter group will be really helpful for our cloners. Thank you for the awesome product :-)
