The GIDEN graphical user interface (GUI) features a single controller window and multiple network windows. In addition, each network window may have an auxiliary pseudocode window when it is operating in solver execution mode.

The main purpose of the GIDEN controller window is to create and manage all network windows, and to provide central access to the network editing tools. Additionally there are a few miscellaneous "global" operations that are available through the controller window. The image below displays a GIDEN controller window with the "Edit Values" tool selected.

The second type of window is a network window. The controller window can create and manage multiple network windows simultaneously, each running in its own thread. Each network window can be used in two modes. In edit mode, a network window can be used to create and modify networks, as illustrated here:

A network window is in solver mode when executing an algorithm implementation from the GIDEN solver toolkit. An example of a network window in solver mode is shown here, along with an auxiliary pseudocode window:
