Editing results
What happens if the user makes a measurement then at a later date wants to change
one of the parameters of the result? For example, suppose that days after a measure-
ment the Refractive Index specified as an optical property is found to be incorrect.
A user can change the properties of the record by selecting it then using
Edit-
Result editor .
The Result Editor dialogue contains tabs similar to the SOP Wizard ’s Material ,
Labels and Report / Saving dialogues:
Each section has a Specify new result calculation check box that, when selected,
lets the user change the settings. The Measurement Options section in Chapter
4 has details of these dialogues.
Remember that the original record cannot be changed. When a user alters a record
using the
Result Editor the changes are saved as a new record. A modified record
can always be identified as its Source parameter shows whether the record has
come from a measurement or been recalculated using the Result Editor .
When the Result Editor is closed down, any changes specified are remembered so
that the next time Result Editor is opened the changes can be assigned to a new
record.
