Exporting

Exporting requires a license.

The statistics table exports as CSV — one row per population, with counts, frequencies and per-channel statistics.

For an experiment rather than a single sample, use the batch route: one table with a row per sample. See Batch analysis.

Three scopes:

Scope What you get
All events Every event in the active file
One gate Only events inside the population you pick
Batch All events across every selected file

Per-gate event export is the route to another tool — hand the events for a population to R or Python without re-deriving the gate there.

Plots export as SVG, PDF or PNG.

  • SVG for figures you will edit in Illustrator or Inkscape — it stays sharp and the elements remain separable.
  • PDF for direct inclusion in a manuscript.
  • PNG for slides and quick sharing.

Prefer SVG or PDF for anything going into a publication. A raster screenshot of a scatter plot loses exactly the sparse events that are usually the point.

The spillover matrix exports for the record. Do it.

A statistics table on its own does not record how it was produced. For a figure or number you may need to defend, export:

  1. The statistics — the numbers themselves.
  2. The compensation matrix — the transform applied to the data.
  3. The workspace — gates, hierarchy, scales and axes. See Workspaces.
  4. The AI audit trail, if the copilot was involved — which steps were proposed and which you approved.
  5. The AI-1 competence report, if AI-1 gated anything — including which populations it declined.

Points 4 and 5 are the ones people forget, and they are the ones a reviewer asking “how was this gated?” is actually asking about.
