Outline

In this tutorial, you will learn how to:

Create a new Project.
Rename a project and/or project node.
Remove a project and/or project node.
Save project files that you have created.

Workspaces and Projects

In the Project Folders component there is a top-level object called a workspace. The workspace can contain one or more separate projects, and each project can contain opened data files and analysis results. An analogy might be that a workspace is like a drawer in a filing cabinet, and projects are individual folders in that drawer. Projects allow data to be grouped, for example by experiment. A project can contain many different types of data, for example microarray data, FASTA sequence files and graphical images. The workspace as a whole, with all its projects and data nodes, can be saved and restored. However, only one workspace can be open at one time.

All data must belong to a project.

Creating a new project

There are two ways to create a new project. First, select the Workspace node in the Project Folders component. Then, either

(1) In the top-level Menu, select File->New->Project.

or,

(2) In the Project Folders component, right-click on the Workspace and select "New Project".

Either way, the new Project is placed into the workspace:

Project Menu Options

Right-clicking on a Project node gives a menu with the following options

Open File(s)
Open PDB File from RCSB Protein Data Bank
Rename Project
Remove Project

Renaming a project

1. Right-click on Project folder.

2. Select Rename.

3. In the pop-up screen rename your project.

4. Click on the OK button

Removing a project

1. Right-click on Project folder.

2. Select Remove.

Project Data Node Menu Options

Renaming a data node

1. Right-click on a Project Folder data node.

2. Select Rename.

3. In the pop-up screen rename your data node.

4. Click on the OK button.

Removing a project data node

1. Right-click on the data node.

2. Select Remove.

Saving a data node to a file

It is here that, among other things, you can create the matrix multi-experiment file format used by geWorkbench from a merged dataset.

1. Right-click on data node that you want to save.

2. Click Save.

A standard file Save screen will come up.

3. Choose a location.

4. Enter a name.

5. Click on the Save button.
