There were 10 fields in each well in this experiment. The HCS scanner took 1 image in each of the 10 fields in each well for each channel. We'll show how to create a plate view of the Field 1 images of the 48 wells.
  1. Invoke Browse in the primary console:



    to get a browse menu:



  2. Select Field:



  3. After clicking the OK button in the above menu, we'll get a barplot:





  4. We'll retrieve all the cells in Field 1 from this barplot. First paint all the Field 1 cells red:





  5. Put the barplot in the subset mode:





  6. Move the cursor into the plotting area of the barplot and click the left mouse button to pop up a color selection menu:





  7. Select red by clicking the left mouse button over the red rectangle:





  8. After clicking the OK button, all the red cells will be retrieved out of the barplot and put in the temporary console:





  9. Invoke Cell Plot in the temporary console to get a cell plot menu:





  10. Make the following selections:





  11. Click the OK button to get a plate view of the 48 Field 1 images:





  12. If you would like to take a closer look at the Field 1 image from a particular well, say B3, put this cell plot in the trellis display mode:





  13. Move the cross cursor over the B3 panel and click the left mouse button to get the following:





  14. If you would like to hide the nucleus outlines in the above 2 plots of scan images, put any one of the two in the scan image mode:





  15. Move the cross cursor over the image area and click the right mouse button to pop up a menu:





  16. After Hide Nucleus Outlines is selected, the above 2 plots of scan images will look like:
