Title: Disabled all samples in Analyze! window -- can't find how to reenable them
Post by: shenderson on February 10, 2026, 03:49:43 PM
Hello,

Today I selected all the samples I've run in the Analyze! window and clicked on "Disable selected Sample(s)." Having never disabled samples before, I didn't know they completely disappeared. I wanted to enable a single sample and output only its data and instead created a mess.

Does anyone know if or how I can enable all those samples again?
And on another note, is there a way to get X,Y,Z coordinates for a single sample from the Analyze window after I've removed them from the Automate window?

Thank you for your help.

If you accidentally disabled all the samples and want to enable them all again, simply click the sample type (Standards, Unknowns, All Samples, whatever), then click the Select All button, then click the Enable Selected Samples button:

Note you don't need to disable samples unless there's a problem with that sample. Simply select the sample(s) and the program will output the data or analyses for that (those) samples.

If you click the Raw Data button the XYZ coordinates will be displayed in the log window.  To output the coordinates to a text file or Excel just use the User Specified Output by right clicking the selected sample(s).

Or output data/analyses from all samples from the Output menu.
