Format rows columns rowLabel columnLabel
single-well 1 1 123 123
48-well plate 6 8 ABC 123
96-well plate 8 12 ABC 123
384-well plate 16 24 ABC 123
1536-well plate 32 48 ABC 123
3072-well array 32 96 A1a1 A1a1
5184-well chip 72 72 ABC 123
32-well rotor 32 1 123 123
72-well rotor 72 1 123 123
100-well rotor 100 1 123 123

If rows field has value -1, the function will not try to reconstruct a plate and just display all run data in a single column. If the columns field has value 1 then the function will not display a column label.
