Use IGB QuickLoad (QL) to share data files on-line using a Web site or cloud storage service like Dropbox. Using IGB QuickLoad, you can set up and configure data sets so that they'll be listed in the IGB Data Access panel, making it easy for lab members, collaborators, and members of the public to browse and load your data as new tracks in IGB. You can also configure colors, stack height, track names, and associate control how the tracks look and also associated external URLs with data sets. And if you use a Web site to share your data, you can also set a password to protect all or part of your data. IGB QuickLoad supports sharing of any file type you can open in IGB. Last but not least, you can associate an icon with your QuickLoad site so that your users can easily recognize your data among all the other QuickLoad sites.

QuickLoad sites can be local or remote. Typically, you'll create a QuickLoad site on your local computer, test it there, and once you're happy with how the data look when loaded into IGB, you'll transfer it to a Web site or Dropbox folder.
