4.2.4.14. Accepting and cancelling a method edit
When the Accept button is pressed within the Method Editor, it is
closed and the changes done within the method are stored in the
application’s configuration.
However, a previous information integrity check is carried out in order
to avoid an inconsistent method being created.
The checks considered are the following:
• Method name duplication: as stated in 4.2.1, the method name must
be unique.
• A pump and rack model must be selected.
• A syringe model must be selected.
• Flow units must be selected.
If this integrity check fails, you will be warned and the Method Editor
window will not be closed until changes are done or the Cancel button is
pressed.
When the Method Editor window is closed, the Method Definitions
window is automatically updated to show the new information of the
edited / created method.
The information of the edited / created method is automatically stored
within the application’s configuration and retrieved whenever the
application starts again.
If the Cancel button is pressed, you will be asked whether to discard
the changes made to the method.
4.2.4.15. Copying a method
Copying a method allows you to take a created method and alter it,
without overwriting the existing Method. To copy a method, highlight it in
the Methods Definition window then press the Copy button.
4.2.4.16. Method exportation and importation
The File menu in Adagio will provide Import and Export options
which will have the same functionality as in 4.3.
If you attempt to import a method while editing a different method you
will be warned that you will lose your current information and will be asked
to accept the importation.
