Bands
14-11
Fig. 14-6. Create, Adjust, and Remove Bands buttons.
Note: When editing individual bands, it is useful to display your bands as
brackets using Band > Band Attributes (see above). When you edit bands
in brackets mode, a pop-up lane trace will be displayed to help you
determine band boundaries.
14.3.a Identifying Individual Bands
In Brackets Mode
With your bands displayed as brackets, first select Create Band from the
menu or toolbar, then click on either the top or bottom boundary of the band
of interest. An intensity trace of the lane will pop up next to the band.
Drag the cursor until the area of the band that you want to define—
represented by a peak on the intensity trace—has been completely enclosed.
As you drag, lines extending from the band boundaries on the image to the
corresponding boundaries on the intensity trace will appear.
