Some additional assay-related commands are located on the EDIT and ASSAY
menus.

Undo and Redo Formatting Commands

If you make a mistake while formatting, select Undo Formatting from the EDIT
menu. This will undo the last formatting change you made to the plate template. Once
undone, the formatting can be redone by choosing Redo Formatting from the EDIT
menu.

The Undo and Redo commands can also be accessed by clicking the right mouse
button when the pointer is positioned over the template.

Step 1. Define the Assays

If there is more than one assay on a plate, you should define the assays first, then
define the well types. If you accidentally define a new assay over a defined well in
another assay, well numbering will be affected.

To define an assay, click on the Assay button on the template toolbar (or select
Assay from the FORMAT menu). The cursor will change into the Assay tool. Then
drag the mouse to select all wells in the assay. As you drag, a box will appear on the
template marking the selected wells.
