Sample Selection

By selecting samples in the reaction window it is possible to mark certain spectra of the reaction run. Selecting a sample will have the following effects:

• The checkbox in the row of the chosen sample in the Report View will be checked.

• The data point marker of the chosen sample in the Trend View will be shown.

• The corresponding sample spectrum will be added to the Overlay View.
