You save the FlowJo Workspace to a thumb drive that you will open on your home computer. You wrap up work for the week and plan to do analysis at home. The first two examples here are easily remedied by the two options for reconnecting files illustrated above. A folder that contains the FCS files that the Workspace knows about was left at the office/lab.A folder in the file path to your files changes names.An entire directory is moved from one network storage to another network storage.If you have ever opened a Workspace and been prompted to locate FCS files, this is almost always caused by a change in the file path to the sample files. FlowJo acts this way primarily because storing the files with the workspace would require that FlowJo duplicate all of the data in the sample files, resulting in extremely large workspace files and essentially wasting disc storage space. Rather, FlowJo saves the relative path to a set of FCS (or LMD containing FCS) files, and accesses those files as needed each time a Workspace is opened. JO file for V9) FlowJo does not save your raw sample files as part of the Workspace. When saving as a Workspace file (.WSP file for V10. There will not be a reconnection dialog, but the red X through the circle badge will disappear.Īnalysis can now continue. Note, this will not duplicate the samples within the workspace, just reconnect the existing files. Option 2- Click on the Add Samples button within the Navigate band of actions (located by default within the FlowJo tab).īrowse to where the files are located, select the folder and click Choose. FlowJo will automatically reconnect the files. Note that FlowJo will load files at the folder level so there is no need to load each file individually. FlowJo will show a dialog letting you know that your files were reconnected. Select the folder and click the Choose button.
Navigate to the folder that contains the FCS files. Option 1- To reconnect the files, right click (or control click) on a sample with the red X badge and select to Search for FCS files… If you see a big red X through this circle then your files are not connected, and you will need to show the workspace where those files are located before continuing the analysis. The circle badge to the left of the sample name shows if a file is connected to the workspace or not.
#FLOWJO CHANGE SAMPLE NAME HOW TO#
How to reconnect sample files to the FlowJo Workspace: There is an easy way to reconnect files to the workspace without reanalyzing the data. If sample files are moved to a new location, or a folder in the file path is renamed, a FlowJo workspace may not be able to locate the sample files when re-opened.
