Dear Skyline support team,
I am currently experiencing difficulties creating a spectral library. While the MaxQuant output MSMS.txt can be read without error messages from Skyline, no y+ are displayed when I explore the library (all other ions are displayed as identified by MQ, also y++). I experience this problem with multiple versions of Skyline (3.7 & 4.1) and multiple different input files from MQ.
The tutorial spectral libraries could be created with y+ displayed and intact, so I don't think I got some setting wrong.
Please find attached the MSMS.txt I'm using. I've looked and it seems die y+ ions are reported correctly.

Could the import be somehow the problem?

Thanks for any help! Best,
Klemens

Hi Klemens,

It looks like the library is being built without the label modifications. Normally with labels we expect to see the msms.txt containing a column "Labeling State", where its value corresponds to the parameter group in the mqpar.xml file. I suppose if there is only one parameter group and the labeling state column is missing, we can just assume the one? I'll make a fix for this; for now you can manually add the "Labeling State" column and fill it with zeros.

Thanks,
Kaipo
