Line Graph

To access the Line Graph view, choose Graphs > Line Graph from the menu.

The Line Graph view is composed of several elements. The graphical display on the left is discussed in this topic. The toolbar tools above the graphical display and the Info Pane on the right are described in separate topics.

The Line Graph view plots the signals for selected genes over each experiment in your project, and then connects the data points with a line so that signals are shown relative to one another across the group of experiments.

Signals are plotted vertically along the Y-axis, while the X-axis position for each point is determined by the experiment to which it belongs. This allows visual comparison of gene signals across the entire series of experiments or conditions.

Right-click on a Line Graph to access the following context menu commands:
