The Mappings Table
The mappings table is the component of the recipe editor that links your recipe
ingredients to their nutritional data items in the database (see Calculating Nu-
tritional Data for a Recipe, below). In order to correctly calculate nutritional
data, each ingredient must be mapped to an appropriate item in the nutritional
database. Ingredients that have been mapped are marked with a

and will

show the name of the nutritional item it maps to. Unmapped ingredients are
marked with a

. Unless a mapping is provided, these ingredients will not be

used in the nutritional calculations for the recipe. To see the item in the data-
base that the ingredient maps to, you just need to click on the button next to
the nutritional item name.

The Nutritional Info per Serving HUD

Found in the toolbar of the main nutritional database window is a button to
open the nutritional data per serving HUD window. You can also access this
window from the Nutrition menu. This floating window allows you to browse a
summary of the calculated data, per serving, for the recipe that is selected in
your recipe box. If no data has been calculated, the values will be marked with a
“--” where the calculated values would be displayed.
