Moving Vertices/Gates:
To move a vertex, select a gate, and then click on the vertex handle (black square) and hold the mouse button down while dragging the vertex to a new location (at right).
If you want to move the entire gate, mouse over the lines of the selected gate (the cursor will change to a four-sided arrow), then click-and-drag it to the new location. For finer movement, select a gate and use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move the gate one pixel in the direction of the arrow key.
When multiple gates exist in one graph window, you can navigate between the gates by Shift-clicking on the gates.
Changing Gate Properties:
Right-clicking on a selected gate provides options to change the gate's line thickness, text, and allows you the option to set the gate's preferences.
Worthy of note:
- Whenever a gate is moved, FlowJo will automatically recalculate the gate's statistics, as well as the statistics of all child gates associated with the moved gate (shown in image at top).
- If a gate is group owned, moving the gate will divorce it from its "group-owned" status. For more on group-owned gates, go here.
- A variety of gate properties can be set by changing the gate preferences. For more, go here.
