The overview includes a lot of checks 72 that validates your experimental setup for missing 73 or possibly incorrect information. 74 </para> 75 76 <para> 77 You can access the overview of an experiment by navigating 78 to the single-item view of the experiment you are interested in. 79 Then, switch to the <guilabel>Overview</guilabel> tab that 80 is present on that page. Here is an example of what is displayed: 81 </para> 82 83 <figure id="experiments_analysis.figures.experimentoverview"> 84 <title>The experiment overview</title> 85 <screenshot> 86 <mediaobject> 87 <imageobject><imagedata 88 fileref="figures/experiment_overview.png" format="PNG" 89 /></imageobject> 90 </mediaobject> 91 </screenshot> 92 </figure> 93 94 <helptext external_id="experiment.overview " 95 title="Experiment overview"> 96 <para> 97 The page is divided into three sections: 98 </para> 99 100 <itemizedlist> 101 <listitem> 102 <para> 103 To the left is a tree displaying all items 104 in the experiment and how they are linked to 105 each other. 106 </para> 107 </listitem> 108 109 <listitem> 110 <para> 111 The lower right shows a list of warnings and error 112 messages that was found when validating the experiment. 113 <nohelp> 114 In the example you can see that we have failed to 115 specify a value for the <guilabel>Temperature</guilabel> 116 protocol parameter for one of the samples. 117 </nohelp> 118 </para> 119 </listitem> 120 121 <listitem> 122 <para> 123 The upper right shows information about the 124 currently selected item in the tree.
