Sharing Results

Saving .cloupe Files

You can save your dataset workspace, including any custom clusters and feature lists you've created by clicking on the Save (disk) icon on the toolbar.

If you prefer to create a new version of a .cloupe file, choose Save As from the File menu, or press Ctrl-Shift-S (Windows) or Command-Shift-S (Mac). You are prompted to create a new .cloupe file somewhere in your file system.

Loupe Cell Browser files are self contained, so if you want to share a dataset with a colleague, you can send him or her the .cloupe file.

Importing and Exporting Categories

There are many scripts and packages in the single-cell analysis ecosystem so you may want to import and export cluster labels into and out of Loupe Cell Browser. Select Categories mode, click on the action button to the right of the active category name, and select one of the import/export options.

Cluster labels are stored in CSV format. When importing cluster label CSVs into Loupe Cell Browser, barcodes must be in the first column, the first row must be a column header, the barcode column header must be named barcode, and the values of the barcodes must match at least a subset of the barcodes in the .cloupe file. To get a sense of the CSV structure, you can Export one of the pre-defined categories in your dataset, and view it with a text editor or spreadsheet tool.

Exporting Data and Graphics

There are a variety of mechanisms to export data and graphics from your ATAC dataset. The toolbar, categories list, feature list, feature table. and peak viewer all have export functionality.

Export functions include:
