Apply a filter chain to analysis results
You can apply a filter chain to the analysis results to further refine your view to only variants of interest in Ion Reporter™ Software. Filter chains are preinstalled or customized sets of one or more filters that remove variants from analysis results. You can apply only one filter chain at a time. For more information, see Filters and filter chains.
When you apply a filter chain to analysis results, the list of variants is filtered in real-time. You must save your filter chain to have the filter chain immediately alter the heat maps, other visualizations, and exported results of your variants of interest. If you do not save your filter chain on the Analysis Results, then the heat maps and other multiple analysis visualizations show the entire results.
- In the Analyses tab, click Overview.
- Select the link to your analysis of interest.
-
In the Analysis Results screen, in the Filter Options pane, navigate to the Filter Chains list, then select a filter chain to apply it.
The filtered variants results change.
- In the Filter Options pane, review the Variants counts.
-
(Optional) If you want to save these changes to your analysis results, click Save Filter Chain.
Saving the filter chain ensures that when reopening the same analysis, the newly saved filter chain is applied to the analysis results.
