Matching in Progenesis SameSpots

With SameSpots, the same set of spot outlines are used for every gel in the experiment. This single set of spot outlines is always maintained during the SameSpots workflow, so any edits on one image are automatically applied to every other image in the experiment. This speeds up spot editing (you now only need to edit one image), and means that all spots are always 100% matched in all gels.

Because of this 100% matching all the time, there is no reason to edit the matching.

Sometimes you may see spots that look incorrectly matched, but when this happens it's because of a problem with the alignment, not with the matching. So you will need to correct this problem at the alignment stage.

For example, the highlight image in the group "Drug A" (shown below) has been aligned incorrectly.
