-The ''​Ptidej UI Viewer''​ project provide interfaces and classes used by all the viewers. In particular, it provides the ''​ptidej.viewer.IRepresentation''​ interface that is the "​model"​ (as in Model-View-Controller) of any viewer. This interface allows managing PADL models, Ptidej UI models, original sources, occurrences... It is essential that any viewer uses this interface for its model, as it allows extensions to the viewers to work seamlessly regardless of the viewer implementations.

 +===== Canvas ===== 
 + 
 +To assure the independence of the graphical representation,​ of the analyses and UI analyses, and of the extensions from the viewers and underlying graphical frameworks (AWT or SWT), ''​Ptide UI Viewer''​ provides several layers of models and canvas. A instance of ''​ModelGraph''​ is a graphical representation of an ''​AbstractLevelModel''​. Such an instance must be embedded into an instance of ''​Canvas''​. ''​ModelGraph''​ and ''​Canvas''​ are independent of the underlying graphical framework. Viewers and users can interact with them through two interfaces ''​SelectionListener''​ and ''​CanvasListener''​ following the Observer design pattern. An instance of ''​Canvas''​ can be finally embedded into either an ''​AWTCanvas''​ or ''​SWTCanvas''​ for integration in a user-interface.

-    - Starting-up the project viewer {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_1.png?​100|}} 
-    - Using the File menu to create a new model from some C++ source files {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_2.png?​100|}} 
-    - Giving a name to the model {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_3.png?​100|}} 
-    - Selecting a directory containing C++ source files {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_4.png?​100|}} 
-    - After reverse-engineering the C++ source code files, displaying the model {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_5.png?​100|}} {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_5.1.png?​100|}} 
-    - Selecting the Tools tab {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_6.png?​100|}} and showing the list of micro-architectures similar to some motifs (either from design patterns, design anti-patterns,​ code smells, or micro-patterns) {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_6.1.png?​100|}} 
-    - At first, the list is empty {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_5.png?​100|}} 
-    - But selecting the Code Smells tab and the AbstractClass code smell reveals some potential problems {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_8.png?​100|}} 
-    - These problem can be investigated by selecting the displayed occurrence in the list {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_9.png?​100|}} or in the model view {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_10.png?​100|}} {{:​ptidej_ui_viewer_standalone_swing_10.1.png?​100|}}
