Line Graph Thumbnails Info Pane

The Info Pane appears to the right of the Line Graph Thumbnails view and gives information about the data displayed. The Info Pane is separated from the rest of the Line Graph Thumbnails view by a splitter bar which can be dragged to resize the window. The Info Pane may be hidden or shown by using the Show/Hide Info Pane tool hide_info_pane_button.

 

The Overview section:

 

This section displays the parameters that were used to do the clustering displayed in the Line Graph Thumbnails view. Included are the clustering type, distance metric, starting random seed value, random seed of winning trial, the number of gene clusters, and the number of trials. This section also includes information about the genes displayed in the clustering: the number of data points clustered, the number of tree nodes, and the maximum tree depth.

Parameters can be adjusted by selecting Clustering > Advanced Clustering to access to the Clustering Parameters window. You may also add notes to your clustering result by clicking on the “Notes: (Edit)” link in the Overview section. In order to view your notes later, make sure to save your result by selecting Clustering > Remember Clustering Result or by clicking the Remember Clustering Result toolremember clustering result button.

 

The Details section:

 

This section displays information about the genes displayed in your clustering. If no genes are selected, this section will list the total number of genes in the clustering, as well as the corresponding experiment names.

If only one cluster is selected, details for the selected cluster will be displayed, including how many genes are in the cluster, as well as the number that are currently selected. Any notes that you have entered for the cluster will also be displayed. Click the “Notes: (Edit)” link to add notes for the selected cluster.

The Actions section:

 

The Actions section is located at the bottom of the Info Pane, and provides hyperlinked shortcuts for various tasks. Options vary depending on the view and workflow. See Actions Section Hyperlinks for a description of each hyperlink.
