Output Description

Surface Summary

Running this process for the AffymetrixLatinSquareExample sample setting generates the tabbed Results window shown below. Refer to the Surface Summary process description for more information. Output from the process is organized into tabs. Each tab contains one or more plots, data panels, data filters, and so on, that facilitate your analysis.

The Results window contains the following panes:

Tab Viewer

This pane provides you with a space to view individual tabs within the Results window. Use the tabs to access and view the output plots and associated data sets.

The following tabs are generated by this process:

•
