Request: Consistency between note importing and exporting Chris Ashwood  2024-06-06 23:14
 

Dear Skyline Team,

I hope you've had a great ASMS. I've been working on my reports, and noticed that when I import a transition list, only one form of note is available, "Note". However, when I try to export the same note from the document, there are four different note types (transition, precursor, molecule, molecule list). Skyline seems to default that "Note" in the transition list import is a "Transition Note", and this cannot be changed in the transition list import stage. This becomes problematic when exporting MS1 data with isotopes because only the monoisotopic line in the export features the imported note.

Could the transition list import feature please be updated to include all existing note forms? I would like to say that a note is a precursor note, ensuring the note is specified across different isotopes coming from the same precursor.

Cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,

That's a good idea, and not terribly difficult to implement. I'll add it to our development queue.

Cheers
Brian
