Menu Bar
The Menu Bar is located at the top of the geWorkbench graphical interface, and provides access to important actions, settings and information.
This section will briefly cover the individual menu items. Some items have their own more extensive documentation, and links to this will be provided.
File
The following choices are available in under the File menu.
Open
- File - Open a specific data file. A Project node must be selected in the Project Folders component. A standard file browser will appear, and the user can select from any of the file types that geWorkbench can directly load.
- Workspace - Open a previously saved geWorkbench workspace. It does not matter what is currently selected in the Project Folders component, as everything will be overwritten by the contents of the newly loaded workspace. A standard file browser will appear.
Save
- Workspace - Save the current workspace to a file on disk.
New
- Workspace - Create a new geWorkbench workspace.
- Project - Within a workspace, create a new project.
Export
- Export the microarray dataset currently selected in the Project Folders component in the "Affymetrix File Format" (.exp). This format preserves array sets that may have been defined. See the File_Formats#Affymetrix_File_Matrix_Format_.28geWorkbench.29 section for details of this format.
Merge Datasets
If more than one data file originating from the same platform has been loaded into a project, the datasets can be merged into one for analysis. See Local_Data_Files#Microrray_data_and_merging_datasets for further information.
Remove
This option will remove a project or a data node under the project from the Project Folders component. It will not remove a top-level workspace.
Exit
Close geWorkbench. The user will be prompted as to whether to save the workspace before closing.
