Chapter 7 Creating Experiments and Workspaces
Applying Heat Maps
You can set up heat maps to determine which samples are rich in one region versus another. You can
specify multiple regions for the comparison, using regions from any type of plot or histogram. The heat
map regions do not have to be set up in the same plot or histogram.
During acquisition and in the Analysis tab, pointing at a position in the plate map displays a heat map
represented as a pie chart. Colors and color gradients provide visual indicators of relative richness.
The color intensity of a region’s pie slice corresponds to the percentage of the sample’s events
coming from that region:
n Low percentages appear lighter and gray.
n High percentages appear darker and red.
Note: When applying heat maps to quadrant regions, wait until the experiment has been applied
to the workspace.
To apply regions to a heat map
1. Point to a plot or histogram that contains the region(s) that you want to apply to a heat map.
The plot and histogram toolbar appears.
