The Caryoscope main window. (a) Caryoscope displays all numerical annotations from the data file as datasets. The datasets are available for viewing via the dataset selector at the top of the Caryoscope window. (The data shown are provided by Jon Pollack, from a breast tumor sample. Note the significant regions of amplification and deletion.) The toolbar at the top allows the user to select a variety of modes for viewing the data. The panning and zooming modes allow the user to navigate the data, while the Reset viewpoint button returns to display all of the data in the current dataset, scaled to the current window size. The Navigate mode enables hyperlinking and tooltips. The zoom level indicators improve the user's situational awareness while viewing the data. (b) The Settings window allows the user to configure the application.
