Although printing will remain the dominant
way to summarize analyses for some time to come, there are times when
being able to write direct to web pages can make it easier to share,
publish or archive your experimental results. At the very least,
this gives you the opportunity to check a lot of data, and determine
what is worth printing. And the trend seems undeniable; over
time, more and more of what today is printed will tomorrow be posted.
To create a web page from FlowJo, click on the button
showing a web in the top right corner of the StackViewer
window. You will be prompted to give the name and location
of a folder which will hold the HTML text file and the JPEG image
files which combine to form the web page. You can also create
web pages as the output of a batched layout.
The StackViewer window will create a different format
of web page depending on what mode it is in. In the Tiled Frames
mode, it will produce a web page containing an embedded image for
each frame in the stack. Images from each Frame are saved
as individual JPEG files, and an index.html file is generated
to display them.
In the Animated Frames mode, the web page will contain
an embedded QuickTime
movie. An index.html file is also generated to wrap around
the movie, and cause it to be loaded correctly by a browser.
In the first incarnation (ver 2.7), very basic pages
are created and there is not much ability to customize their format
within FlowJo. The generated pages are editable in text processors
or web authoring programs if further customization is required.
Your comments
and feedback will determine the extent
to which this feature is extended in future versions.
