Description |
ΔF/F0 |
dfperf |
boolean |
Calculates ΔF/F0 normalization of the trace |
Resample |
resample |
boolean |
Resamples the trace by the time interval given in Preferences. |
Plot type (statistics to plot) |
type |
string |
Available plot types: "Mean", "Sum", "Variance", "PDI variance", "PDI sd", "Line Scan". These statistics describe pixels within each segment. To calculate statistics between segments use the "Mean of all traces" option. |
Mean of all traces |
allMean |
boolean |
Calculates a mean value of all traces for each time point. |
Median of all traces |
allMedian |
boolean |
Calculates a median value of all traces for each time point. If "Yes" then mean calculation is disabled. |
Time course normalization |
advnorm |
string |
This option supersedes ΔF/F0 normalization. |
Histogram and distribution |
histogram |
string |
This option supersedes other normalization, mean and median calculations. See histogram parameters below. |
Save name |
savename |
string |
|
Save |
save |
boolean |
|
Confirm saving |
saveconfirm |
boolean |
Overwrites automatically if No, pops up dialog if Yes. |
Range markers for means or rates |
ranges |
string |
If left empty, all time points are shown, or give ranges to calculate means e.g. 1-3;7-9. Use "All" to select all time points. Try also copy/paste marks in the plot window context menu. |
Calculate rates at markers |
rates |
boolean |
Plots slopes of traces for each range, calculated before or after normalization, as set in "Normalization". This is performed before mean of all traces calculation, if selected. |
Normalize rates |
ratesnorm |
boolean |
Normalization is performed after rate calculation if Yes, or before rate calculation if No. |
Y-values only (no time column) |
yonly |
boolean |
Copies y-data only to data table |
Place channels into columns |
mdoutput |
boolean |
Organizes data in table according to multi-dimensional open parameters. See the range setting below to optionally select the range of channel numbers to appear in the output worksheet. The plot algorithm does not know what channels were previously exported, but the column position of the output is determined either relatively to currently present channel numbers in linked images, or to the range set below. |
Range of channel numbers to lay out |
channelrange |
string |
This will set up the header of the output, when channels are laid out as columns. Set All to use all channels present in images linked to the one that is processed first. If plotting data from unlinked images, provide a range of channel numbers here, e.g. 1-3. |
Plate worksheet output |
plateoutput |
boolean |
Organizes data in table according to microplate well associations in additional worksheets. |
Place positions into columns |
stagetocolumn |
boolean |
Data from multiple stage positions will appear in new columns instead of being appended below the existing data. This option requires the MD output to be turned on. |
Expect only a single channel |
singlechannel |
boolean |
Discards channel information and a single channel is recorded. Use this to suppress empty columns in output. |
New plot always entered in a new row |
forcenewrow |
boolean |
When "Place channels into columns" is set to yes repeated plotting in a Multi-dimensional open position will enter data in the same row to make data from different channels appear next to each other. Set this to yes to override this behavior and force each plot command to create a new row in the Excel Data Window. |
Histogram: number of bins |
histogrambins |
integer |
When the output is histogram, the histogram is calculated using this number of equal sized bins, where the lowest bin starts at the smallest data point and the highest bin ends at the largest data point. If explicit range definition is used below, the bins will bound the given range. Use zero bin size for automatic binning. |
Histogram: range |
histogramrange |
string |
If left empty or set to "All", a histogram is generated where the lowest bin starts at the smallest data point and the highest bin ends at the largest data point. If a range is given here e.g. 100-500, then the lowest bin starts at the beginning of the range and the highest bin ends at the end of the range. |
Time Continuous Segments |
continuous |
boolean |
Segments not present in all frames will be copied to all frames before evaluation |
Constrain to active ROI |
constrainActiveROI |
boolean |
Calculates only segments overlapping with the active ROI in the segmented image. |
