Reports

The documents created by ModFit LT are called reports. Each reports contains the analysis information for one data sample, and can be saved to disk and re-opened by the program.

When you start ModFit LT, a simple report is created for you automatically. It contains several objects which are common to all reports: a graphical element which displays the histogram data, a textual element which displays analysis results, and the gates that have been created. The histogram is not displayed until there is a data file loaded. The text objects remain hidden until you have analyzed the data.

To see these elements, load a data file into ModFit LT. The histogram will be displayed. In addition, if you load listmode data, you can create gates on the data. The gate graphics will appear on the report, allowing you to manipulate the gates without reloading the sample.

 

Report Tools

ModFit LT reports can include additional text and graphics that you add to the report with report tools. These tools are found on the Insert tab of the ribbon bar.  In toolbar mode, the Report toolbar is displayed.

The table below shows the report tools and their functional descriptions. Click a tool for additional information.

Moving and resizing report objects

All of the objects on the report can be moved, and most objects can be resized. This allows you to place objects where you want them on the report page, and adjust the size of graphics elements.

To move an object, click and hold the mouse button down on the object, then move the object. Release the mouse to set the new position.

To resize an object, click the object to select it. Handles will appear on the object. Click and hold the mouse button down on one of the handles. As you move the handle, the object will resize. Release the mouse to set the new size.
