Managing dataset collections

When you have just a few samples - clicking through them is easy. But once you've got hundreds - it becomes very annoying. Galaxy includes Dataset collections that allow you to combine numerous datasets in a single entity that can be easily manipulated.

Figures 3-5 display the creation of a "Dataset list" collection. In order to create a new dataset collection, first we need to choose the type and a name for the new collection (Figure 3). In the next step, we choose the datasets that we want to include in our new collection (Figure 4). Once we've selected all the datasets, we can confirm the creation of the new collection (Figure 5). The new collection will be displayed in the current history.
