maximum Y-Axis value) to access a dialog box. In this dialog box, the user can type in a new value that

Recalculate
If VisualSpreadsheet attempts to open a List file collected with an earlier software version (2.2 or older)
the following window is displayed:
Selecting “Yes” will recalculate the particle properties and statistics using the current methods and
parameters. When the recalculation is performed, the graphs and statistics are adjusted to reflect the
recalculated particle properties. Note that during the recalculation process VisualSpreadsheet will use
the Current Calibration Factor. Typically, more accurate results are obtained using the calculations and
methods of the current version (3.0) of VisualSpreadsheet.
Selecting “No” will result in the particle properties (and statistics calculated from said properties) being
displayed just as they were collected. Additionally, the Current Value of the Calibration Factor is
changed to the value that was used when the original data were collected. At any time, the user may
Recalculate the open List File. The Recalculate option is found under the Tools menu and opens the
window displayed below:
Once the data are recalculated, you can save the recalculated values in a new list using the File > Save
List As. If you do not save the new List after Recalculate, VisualSpreadsheet will prompt you to Save
changes when you exit the program or open a new list.
