button.

4.2 Viewing the Template

You can display a template in three sizes. Under the VIEW menu, select Show Full
Size, Show Compact,
or Show Tiny. The smaller sizes are useful for viewing larger
templates.

If a template is too large to fit in the display window, it will be displayed with scroll
bars along the right side and bottom of the template window.

Cursor Feedback

When you move your cursor over a template, the well number is displayed next to the
cursor and in the status bar at the bottom of the Microplate Manager window. In
addition, if applicable, the assay number, well formatting, and current value of the
well are displayed in the status bar.
