Run a Notebook

Cytomic Orion supports multiple ways of running a notebook:

  • Run a cell: In the toolbar, click the icon. The output of running a single cell appears immediately after it.

  • Run all cells: In the toolbar, click the icon. The output of running each cell appears immediately after it.

  • Run the whole notebook: Click the icon, or select Presentation mode. This mode is aimed at sharing output. For more information about this mode, see Run a Notebook.

Access Presentation Mode

To access this mode, click the Presentation button, or the icon in the toolbar. An animation appears that indicates the notebook is running. When the process is complete, the output appears.

Presentation Mode Controls

Presentation mode provides a number of controls that enable analysts to interact with the notebook:

Notebook presentation mode controls

  • Notebook name (1).

  • Kernel status (2): Indicates whether the notebook execution engine is stopped (Idle) or running a cell (Busy).

  • Save (3): Saves the notebook output.

  • Refresh (4): Runs the notebook again and shows the output.

  • Last run (5): Date, time, and time zone information for the last time the notebook was run.

  • Presentation mode (6): In Code mode, the notebook shows the output associated with each cell individually. In Presentation mode, the code is hidden and the notebook shows the output only, enabling interaction with the analyst.

  • Help (7): Opens the web help in a side panel.

  • Convert (8): Saves the notebook output to a PDF or HTML file, including tables, charts, diagrams, and other static items.

  • Maximize (9): Hides all Cytomic Orion menus and accessory items to display the output in full-screen mode.

Presentation Mode Persistence

When you run a notebook in presentation mode, the calculated data is saved to the platform. This way, if you access the notebook later, it automatically loads the saved output from the last time it was run.

When a notebook shows the data saved from a previous execution, it temporarily loses its interactive features. Click the refresh icon (4) to recover this feature.
