Band Style
Bands in your gel image can be marked with brackets that define the top and
bottom boundaries of the band, or they can be marked with a dash at the
center of the band. Indicate your preference by clicking on the Brackets or
Lines button next to the Band Style prompt. (This setting can be temporarily
changed in the Band Attributes dialog box. However, all newly opened
images will use the preferences setting.)
2.5.e Paths
Click on the Paths tab to access the following preference.
Temporary File Location
Temporary image files are normally stored in the TMP directory of your
Discovery Series folder. The full path is listed in the field. To change the
location of your temporary files, click on Browse and select a new directory.
To return to the default TMP directory, click on the Default checkbox.
2.6 User Settings
If Quantity One is on a workstation that has multiple users, each user can
have his or her own set of preferences and settings.
In multiple-user situations, the preferences and settings are associated with
individual user names. On a PC with Windows 95/98/NT, your user name is
the name you use to log onto the computer. On a Macintosh, your user name
is the Owner Name under the File Sharing control panel.
Note: If you do not log onto your PC under Windows 95/98 or do not have a
Owner Name on your Macintosh, then you do not have a user name and
your preferences and settings will be saved in a generic file.
