Is there a way to create an Intelligent report showing chromatograms in given scale for a particular sample in the sequence while the rest of the samples remain in different scale?

I need an intelligent report for chromatograms capable to display an specific scale for a sample in my sequence while the rest will have different scale. 

  • Hello,

    While this would be possible, I would first look at other options with auto scaling or scaling on a specific peaks to set scaling. There is not enough information in your post about how you want to define the scaling for the other injections and the specific injection in question. You cannot change scaling methods in IR in a template so if you want to set a specific scale for one sample or group of samples you need to control the scaling for all injections. A simple example would be to use the signal injection lot and set the signal scale to a custom  =if(Sample_Type = 1,100,10), which would scale the upper limit to 100 for calibration injections and 10 for all others. This is a very simple example but the same concept could be extended to a single injection by name, vial, sample_type, custom field or other marker.

    I will try to follow your example to see if I can do it. I do have in my sequence blank, samples injections and MWM from Bio-Rad. The absorbance from the three types of samples is remarkable different so, I would like to have the Samples and Blanks in the same scale for example 0-500 mAU,  while for the molecular I would like to have in full scale (0-2000). I need an IR capable of doing fixed scale for samples and blanks and full scale or given scale for MWM. All sequence injectons in the same report. 

  • Hello,

    The other option would be to add 2 separate chromatogram objects to your report and then filter them by sample type. You could then set the scale in each as you want it. The filter would allow you to display only the chromatogram object that had the scaling for the sample type of the current injection.
