It is possible to refine your search by just searching on an already
existing search result.
In the search query dialog, please select a search result as library
to limit your search request to the results of a previous search request.
The other way to perform a refined search is to drag & drop an object,
e.g. a spectrum, onto a search result node in the library explorer.

Audit Trail
What is an audit trail?
Please refer to the audit trailsection in the Definitions section for details.
What happens to the audit trail if the undo operation is performed?
If the last operation is undone on an object, the original object is
restored in its state before the last operation has been applied.
In this case, the operation, that has been undone, will not occur in
the audit trail of the object.
Undo and Redo operations can be executed as many times as desired without
taking effect on the audit trail of an object as long as the object is
not stored meanwhile.
Once the object is stored, the modifications will be applied and cannot
be undone anymore.
Where can I see the audit trail of an object?
The audit trail of an object can be reviewed in the audit
trail tab.
Just click the object or project in the project explorer. The audit
trail tab shows the audit trail of the selected object
File Handling
Why is the Save all... command inactive sometimes?
The Save All...command is only active in the menu, if any modified objects
are available in the software.
What happens to the modified files when closing the application?
The user is prompted for not yet saved files when he closes the application.
He can either save them or discard changes.
A list of all modified files will be presented and the user might select
those files to be stored and deselect those to be discarded.
Project Administration
Must I save a project?
Projects will be saved automatically on confirmation of modifications
of files enclosed. This is for security reasons.
How can I review library properties
Projects cannot be renamed in the software, but they can be copied and pasted
within the project explorer. You are prompted to store the project under
a different name on your hard disc then.
Alternatively, use the Save
as command to save a project under a new name.
Can I add the same file multiple times into a project?
File names in a project must be unique within the same level. You might
add the same file multiple times into different folders or under different
names.
If you open the same file twice, the file will be automatically renamed
into 'Copy of...'.
Must I save files located in a project?
Projects and file enclosed can be saved using the Save command. Modified files will
be marked by an asterisk (*) symbol and they are red colored.
Why do opened files do not appear in my project?
If you open files via the Open
command in the File
menu, the file is just opened and shown on the workspace.
If you like the file to be added into a project, please use the Add
Files command from the Project menu or the Add Files
toolbar icon in the project explorer
Mathematics
How can I change the resolution?
The software offers the opportunity to Adjust the x-axis properties
of an equidistant data object. Here the resolution
can be changed or data points can be shifted.
How can I set new borders of a spectrum?
Use the Adjust X-Axis command from
the Mathematics menu to perform
this operation.
Enter a new starting value and / or new
ending value within the current spectrum borders in the adjust x-axis
function and the spectrum will be cut according to the new borders.
