Summary View

Summary View is one of the charting options available in the Charts Panel. It displays the summary measurements (mean (+/- sd or sem), min, max, total) for object set/groups as a bar graph.

To display the Summary view, open the Charts Panel and select the Summary view option  from the Charts selection dropdown menu.

Appearance

All data for each object set/group is used to estimate mean, Standard Deviation (SD), Standard Error of the Mean (SEM), min, max or total. If mean is selected mean values are displayed as bars, SD or SEM are displayed as error bars. Min, max and total are displayed as bars, without error bars.

General usage

Select measurement

As with all charts, to change a measurement, use the selection box in the upper left of the chart or use the arrows left of the y-axis label. Per default, measurements include "Counts" indicating the number of objects in each object set/subset and for classes/phenotypes "Component Counts" showing a stacked bar for the object counts for each class/phenotype within a classifier/phenotyper. Additionally, in the Summary view underneath the measurements choose the type of summary measurement (mean, min, max or total) - except for "Counts" and "Component Counts".

Select object sets/groups

To modify the object sets/groups that are displayed, hover above the object sets/groups names on the x-axis until they turn red and left click. This will bring up the menu of object sets/groups for you to select and unselect.

A plus-sign on the right of the x axis indicates additional object sets/groups which are currently not displayed. To add these object sets/groups click the plus button and select the sets/groups you want. By default, the number of object sets/groups displayed is fixed, depending on the size of the chart panel, but will be changed automatically if more object sets/groups are selected.

Context menu

If mean is displayed the context menu (right click in the chart to open it) offers the option to switch between SD and SEM for the error bar.
