Band Set Toolbar
The toolbar in the Band Set form contains all the commands needed for
matching.
Fig. 15-14. Band set toolbar.
Apply to Lane applies the band set to any lane in your gel image. Click on the
button, then click on the lane. The bands in that lane that can be matched will
change to red.
Clear from Lane removes the band set modeling from any lane in your gel
image. Click on the button, then click on the lane to be cleared. The bands in
the lane will change to yellow.
Create Band and Remove Band are standard band commands that have been
included in the toolbar for convenience.
Match is used to define a band as a new band type. Click on the button, then
click on the unknown (yellow) band to create a new band type. Note that if
you click on a lane that has not been included in a band set, you will be
prompted to create a new band type for every band in the lane.
Unmatch will change a band’s definition from matched or known to
unknown. Click on this button, then click on the matched (red) or known
(green) band to change it to unknown.
Propagate Band Set applies all the known band types to the bands in a lane,
based on a few manually-assigned bands and the band set model. Click on
this button, then click on the lane. The bands in that lane that can be matched
will change to green to indicate their known status.
