Operation
Simultaneous cut-and-paste/copy-and-paste of the list data
The list data can also be copied or moved by drag-and-drop operation. To drag data, select the data and
move the mouse pointer to the boundary of the selected data. When the shape of the pointer changes
into a square, drag the data and drop it at the desired point to move the data. If you drag-and-drop data
while holding down the Ctrl key, the data is copied and pasted. However, the data displayed in Sample
cannot be copied and pasted (replicated). It can only be cut and pasted (moved).
If you move sample data from a folder you created into a folder containing different target data, the
linkage between the sample data and the target data changes.
Deleting the list data
Right-click the selected (highlighted) data and select Delete from the displayed context menu. Or, select
the data and select Edit - Delete from the menu bar. If more than one piece of data is selected, all the
selected data will be deleted simultaneously. When target data is deleted, the sample data linked to the
target data loses its attribute and becomes absolute data.
When Multi-Point measurement is specified, the data cannot be deleted.
Sorting the list data
The list data can be sorted according to a list item. For example, data can be arranged in ascending order
according to the ΔLv value. Right-click inside the list and select Tool - Sort from the displayed context
menu. Or, select Tool - Sort from the menu bar. The data to be sorted is the list data in the list. When
Sort is selected, the Sort dialog box appears.
When the type of document file is set to the Light-source Color - Contrast Mode measurement, the
Light-source Color - RGB Mode measurement or Light-source Color - RGB & Contrast Mode measure-
ment, the data specified at Group Traits can be sorted.
When Multi-Point measurement is specified, the data cannot be sorted.
Saving the list data in text format
Right-click the selected (highlighted) data and select Save Selection as Text from the displayed context
menu. Or, select the data and select File - Save Selection As Text from the menu bar. The data is saved as
a tab-delimited text in a text file with the extension “.txt” or as a file using a delimiter specified in the
Control Panel (extension: .csv).
The spectral data can be saved as text even when it is not selected in the list items. For details, refer to
page 112.
