In Case 2 (in which the selected step is not linked to the preceding),
the inserted step is not linked either, but the selected step changes
its linking property to be automatically linked to the inserted.
Finally, the inserted step is automatically selected and the method is
recalculated so that its overall information is updated within the status bar
(see 4.2.4.3. ).
4.2.4.8. Removing steps from the method
Only the selected step may be removed by means of the Delete
button of the toolbar (or its equivalent option within the contextual menu of
the selected step).
Before completing the removal task, you will be warned and asked to
confirm the operation. Once confirmed, the step is removed and the
method is automatically redrawn to show its new steps sequence and
overall information within the status bar (see 4.2.4.3. ).
When a step is removed both the preceding and following steps keep
the same duration and step linkage (see 4.2.4.6. ). However, start and
end flow rates are recalculated from the new steps sequence.
4.2.4.9. Defining a Loop within a method
A Loop Feature is provided to allow you to define a step, or number
of steps, that will be repeated within a method.
To create a loop check the ‘Enable Loop’ box located in the upper
right corner of the Method Setup screen. Press the button to open
the Method Loop Properties screen. Enter the steps that you want the
loop to start and end with and the number of times the loop will be
repeated, then press OK. Steps within the loop will be highlighted in
orange and yellow.
