When a spectrum plot is linked to a chromatogram, selecting another time point in the linked chromatogram changes the displayed spectrum. The linkage status of the Spectrum view describes the linked chromatogram by its view number and trace number in the following format:
CxTy
Here,
x = the number of the Chromatogram view
y = the number of the trace in the Chromatogram view
Deleting a chromatogram trace makes any spectrum that is linked to it available for linking to another trace. In such a case, the linkage status of the Spectrum view changes from CxTy to Select Trace to Link. For more information on deleting a trace, see Delete a trace in the Ranges dialog box.
When a spectrum view is available for linking, selecting any chromatogram trace in the workspace links the spectrum to the selected chromatogram, updates the spectrum plot to the selected time point, and changes the appended text in the title bar of the Spectrum view to CxTy.
