3.1.2 Bottom-left frame

The bottom left frame offers the choice between textual information on the object under the mouse pointer, or context information, called MiniMap (figure 3.3).

The information panel allows to retrieve array-level information (e.g. project id, patient id), or clone-level information (e.g. ratio, chromosome, position).

The MiniMap panel allows the user to easily visualize any clone name and its chromosome location. Right-clicking on one of the cytogenetic banding allows to open a contextual menu linking to public databases. This menu can be configured as described in section 2.2.3.
