To add a new metric profile by copying an existing profile
Instead of adding an entirely new metric profile, you can copy an existing profile, edit the profile, and then save the profile with a new name.
1. On the Geneticist Assistant main menu, click File > Manage Quality Metrics.
The Manage Quality Metrics dialog box opens.
2. On the Edit Profile dropdown list, select the metric profile that you are duplicating and editing.
3. Click Duplicate.
The New Profile dialog box opens.
4. Enter the name for the new metric profile, and then click OK.
The New Profile dialog box closes and the Manage Quality Metrics dialog box remains open. The name of the new profile is displayed in the Edit profile field, and the lower (Metrics) pane is populated with the metrics and thresholds from the copied profile.
