################################### *RNAlysis* quick-start video guide ################################### Launching *RNAlysis* ==================== Open the graphical user interface by running `rnalysis-gui` in your terminal or executing `gui.run_gui()` in a Python console. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/load_table.webp Importing Data ============== Select a file from your computer and click 'Start' to import it into *RNAlysis*. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/load_table.webp Exploring Your Dataset ====================== View an overview of your data, including table name, type, and dimensions. Use the 'View full table' button for a comprehensive look. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/view_table.webp Applying Filters ================ Select a filtering function, adjust parameters, and click 'Apply' to modify your table. Changes won't affect the original file until saved. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/filter_table.webp Undo the operations you applied to your data =============================================== Use the 'Command history' window to undo or redo operations applied to your table at any time. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/undo_actions.webp Apply your operations 'in-place' or make a copy ======================================================== Apply operations 'in-place' or to a copy of your table in a new tab, leaving the original unmodified. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/apply_inplace.webp Generating and Saving Visualizations ==================================== Create graphs of your data, resize them, and save in various file formats for further use or presentation. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/generate_graphs.webp Analyze Multiple Tables at the Same Time ========================================= Open new tabs to work on multiple tables simultaneously, enhancing your analytical capabilities. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/new_tab.webp Organizing Your Workspace ========================= Sort tabs and customize their colors to efficiently manage your analytical workspace. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/sort_tabs.webp Saving Modified Tables ====================== Click 'Save table' to store the results of your filtering operations in a location of your choice. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/save_table.webp Creating Gene Sets ================== Import lists of genes as Gene Sets for specialized analysis within *RNAlysis*. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/import_gene_sets.webp Visualizing Gene Set Intersections ================================== Use the 'Visualize Gene Sets' window to create Venn diagrams and UpSet plots, illustrating intersections between tables and gene sets. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/visualize_gene_sets.webp Performing Set Operations ========================= Extract specific subsets from your data using predefined set operations or by selecting subsets in the preview pane. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/set_operations.webp Conducting Enrichment Analysis ============================== Perform various types of enrichment analysis on your filtered tables and gene sets to gain biological insights. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/enrichment_analysis.webp Rapid Gene Information Lookup ============================= Right-click to quickly access gene information from various biological databases, customizable in the settings menu. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/quick_search.webp Building Analysis Pipelines =========================== Group multiple operations with specific parameters into a Pipeline to streamline your data analysis workflow. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/create_pipeline.webp Executing Pipelines =================== Apply Pipelines to multiple tables simultaneously, enhancing efficiency and reducing errors in your analysis. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/apply_pipeline.webp Sharing and Reproducing Analyses ================================ Export and share Pipelines to facilitate reproducibility and collaborative analysis across different computers. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/export_pipeline.webp Integrating External Bioinformatic Tools ======================================== Access a graphical interface for various bioinformatic tools, covering stages from adapter trimming to differential expression analysis. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/external_windows.webp Leveraging Table-Specific Functions =================================== Specify table types when loading to access specialized functions, such as clustering analysis for count matrices. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/table_types.webp Recovering Closed Tabs ====================== Restore accidentally closed tabs through the 'Edit' menu to recover your work. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/restore_tabs.webp Generating Interactive Analysis Reports ======================================= Create comprehensive, interactive analysis reports with a single click, automatically including all generated tables, gene sets, and graphs. .. image:: ../../rnalysis/gui/videos/create_report.webp
