Quick Guide Placement and Toolbar Placement
These checkboxes determine on which side of the screen the Quick Guides and
toolbars will first open.
Placement Behavior
This setting determines whether a Quick Guide or toolbar will always pop up in the
same place and format (Always Auto), or whether they will pop up in the last
location they were moved to and the last format selected (Save Prior).
Toolbar Orientation
These option buttons specify whether toolbars will first appear in a vertical,
horizontal, or expanded format when you open the program.
Tool Help Delay and Persistence

Help appears by entering a value (in seconds) in the Tool Help Delay field.

2.5.e Application
Click on the Application tab to access the following preferences.
Relative Quantity Calculation
The Relative Quantity Calculation option allows you to define how the relative
quantities of defined bands in lanes will be determined for all reports, histograms, and
band information functions: either as a percentage of the signal intensity of an entire
lane or as a percentage of the signal intensity of the defined bands in a lane.
Selecting % of Lane means that the total intensity in the lane (including bands and
the intensity between bands) will equal 100 percent and the intensity of a band in that
lane will be reported as a fraction thereof.
