Pull-down menus

Across the top there is a menu bar with the usual Windows-type pull-down menus arranged from left to right in the order Files, Data Selection, Data Manipulation, Extras/Options, Output, or similar. Those options that are allowed or make sense in a given context are activated. Requests for numerical input make use of the standard Windows-type gray box with the question that is to be answered, the white area into which the data is written, and the appropriate confirmatory Yes/No/Cancel buttons. 

A blank LTI window will pop up. The first task would be to poke into features supported under the File and Tools pull-down menus and see what we can achieve via point-and-click. There is also a Help pull-down menu, which activates the Help Window. 

A graphics window with pull-down menus and tool buttons will pop out. Here are some pointers on the usage of the tool. 

If you start the Help routine in ID WIN-NMR via the cursor shape changes and you can directly select with this new mouse cursor the appropriate information about any entry in the pull-down menus, or any button or function key in the display button panel. 

In this chapter the pull-down menus File, Analysis, Output, Display and Window will be discussed and illustrated. In chapter 5 the options available in the Process menu will be explained. 

The Preview window has its own set of dedicated pull-down menus (File, Edit, Output, Display, Window) as well as its own button panel. 

Processing of time domain data is accessible after having loaded either a ID (.FID) or 2D (.SER) raw data file using the corresponding Process pull-down menus (Fig. 5.16).

Not only should many techniques be included under the umbrella of molecular modeling/computational chemistry, but also the nontheoretically trained bench scientist must be welcomed to apply the techniques. In addition, it is obvious that as molecular modeling packages become easier to use with pull-down menus and point-and-click buttons, it is incumbent on the developers to make sure their software is foolproof and not easily inappropriately applied. 

The desired section can quickly be reached by advancing from the section that is displayed. Once a coronal section is displayed, different views and magnifications can be selected from the pull down menus or icons - information on these menus and icons can be found in the Help section of Adobe Acrobat. (Click on the standard Help icon at the top of the window.)...

The group and track pull-down menus list the same set of annotation groups and tracks displayed in the Genome Browser for the selected assembly. For this example, choose the Comparative Genomics option in the group menu, the Conservation option in the track menu, and the phastConsl7way option in the table menu (see Note 11). 

The Table Browser presents numerous options for saving custom track data. The get custom track in table browser button saves the data set in a temporary table and adds an option for the track to the track and table pull-down menus. The get custom track in file option saves the data to the file designated by output file on the main Table Browser page or outputs the data to the screen if no file is specified. The get custom track in genome browser option opens the Genome... 

None of the default values of the pull-down menus is appropriate. Carefully select... 

Use the default parameters (except the number of alignments and descriptions) such as nr as the database (see Note 3), e-value 10 and the statistical significance threshold to include a sequence for generating the PSSM for the next iteration as 0.005. Change the maximum number of alignments and descriptions, 1000, from the respective pull down menus to retrieve possibly all statistically significant hits. 

In ID WIN-NMR the processing and analysis tools are available from the Process or Analysis pull-down menus in the menu bar. The Process pull-down menu is context sensitive such that before the Fourier transformation only time domain processing functions are available whilst after Fourier transformation the Process pull-down menu is updated to include frequency domain related processing functions. The ID WIN-NMR Process and Analysis pull-down menus are shown in Fig. 3.5.

Figure 57.3 illustrates a virtual instrument that interactively accesses institutional and department specific indicators and profiles them for comparison. Data sets can be acquired directly from standard spreadsheet and database applications (i.e., Microsoft Access , Excel , Sybase , Oracle , etc.). This capability has proven to be quite valuable with respect to quickly accessing and viewing large sets of data. Typically, multiple data sets contained within a spreadsheet or database had to be selected and then a new chart of these data had to be created. Using PIVIT, the user simply selects the desired parameter from any one of the pull-down menus and this data set is instantly graphed and compared to any other data set. 

Four parts consist of Pull Down Menus, Parallel Information, Current Procedure Information, and User Prompts (Lipner and Kerch, 1996). 

Starting with Chapter 1, spreadsheet techniques are introduced and developed as needed by the nature of the problems and examples described. A very minimum of commands need to be reviewed in detail. The student is urged to explore the many pull-down menus which are self-explanatory. The text develops a basic spreadsheet toolkit which includes the following. 

Control of the synthesis par imeters is by a stand-alone IBM-compatible personal computer. The software is based on point and click pull-down menus, allowing access to Peptide, Program, Reaction Vessel operations. Manual operations. Set-up, and Data sections. 

Define Value Lists for Selected Fields. This refers to various pull-down menus or value lists in a CMMS (e.g., equipment condition new, good, average, poor, replace). This standard pnU-down menn will allow for consistency in information provided and utilized. For example, when equipment condition information is collected during PM, the information becomes immediately available to management so it may be utilized for capital planning. This allows for the identification of equipment needing replacement and, along with criticahty, these items can be prioritized for replacement. 

Botanical Garden (http //mobot.mobot.org/W3T/Search/vast.html). TaxonScrubber flags all names that match the standard list and provides pull-down menus to review all unmatched names orthographic variants were corrected manually and all unmatched names are treated as unidentified morphospecies. 

The Graphical User Interface Design Environment (GUIDE) refers to the platform that allows the creation of icons, buttons, and so on that are visually presented to a user as the front end of a software application. A software application that accepts only keyboard-entered commands is considered to be quite outdated and primitive. We prefer to point our mouse pointer to a graphical representation of some aspect of the application, click on it (invoking some event), and continue working with the application through interactive and successive prompts. We are also accustomed to windows, pull-down menus, slider controls, and check boxes. 

Instruction for use of databases is usually given in manuals. But a good retrieval system is self-explaining with user-friendly pull-down menus, dialog boxes and mouse support.
