Setting up a heat map section

Introduction

For a general introduction to report sections, see Adding sections to a report.

Heat map sections show heat maps for groups of tests in an experiment. You can either show one heat map for each test in a group, or you can show a single averaged heat map for the whole group.

To add a heat map section to a results report, click the Add item button in the ribbon bar and select New report section from the menu which appears. On the sub-menu which is then shown, select New heat map section.

What you need to do

Select the Heat map you want to show

Use the Heat map drop-down list to specify the Heat map you want the section to show. The list will include all the heat maps that are part of your protocol; if there are none listed then you will need to add a heat map to the protocol before you can finish setting up the section.

Showing group average heat maps

You can optionally show group average heat maps, these are heat maps in which all the data for a group of tests has been averaged to create a single heat map for the entire group. For this to work, the heat maps for each test need to align, which may not be the case if some of the tests were performed in different apparatus or if different tests have a moveable zone in different locations. To address these issues, you can apply transforms to heat maps, you'll find full details about applying transforms to apparatus here and about applying transforms to align zones, here.

Select the way you want the heat maps to be grouped

Simply use the three drop-down lists to select how the heat maps should be grouped in the report. If you have chosen to show group average heat maps (see above) then these are the groups whose data will be averaged, otherwise, this is how the heat maps for the individual tests will be grouped. For example, selecting Trial and Treatment would cause all the heat maps for the first trial to be shown grouped by treatment. Then all the heat maps for the second trial would be shown, also grouped by treatment; then the third trial, etc.

You must always select at least one grouping measure.
