Be Adventurous
The results are less than ideal. Ideally the center two buttons fill at the same time as the outsides. What would you alter to enable the center two tabs to fill at the same time as the outside edges? Some suggestions include:
- Look at the other results available. What insights do they offer.
- Save the study with a new name using
Application menu > Save > Save Study As and run a second analysis with the melt temperature at
240 C - an increase of 10 C. Compare the results between the two studies.
