 You can select another directory in the drop-down list, then the ‘Name’ text field, ‘Description’ text area and ‘Metaphase images included’ list will be updated accordingly. After you finish editing ‘Name’ or ‘Description’ for one sample, its content will be automatically saved. You can also click the ‘Clear’ button to clear the contents in all of the components. Each sample must have a name, but may not have any description. You can select another directory in the drop-down list, then the ‘Name’ text field, ‘Description’ text area and ‘Metaphase images included’ list will be updated accordingly.

 +Then select a destination directory into which the created samples will be put by clicking the 'Select' button. This directory is also the directory from which you will create a sample set (see the next section). In the directory chooser dialog that pops up, the default directory 'SampleSets' is automatically selected and expanded. It is recommended that you right click on it, then create a new subdirectory as the destination directory.

 +It is very likely that metaphase images are produced by microscope devices of a remote laboratory, thus initially stored on a remote computer of the laboratory. In this case, the images need to be first downloaded to the local computer that you are using, which can also be accomplished by the bottom area of the right panel. In the drop-down list in the right part of the panel, select the item 'Connect to another computer'. In the popped-up dialog, enter the IP address or host name of the remote computer from which you want to download metaphase images, the port number, the user name of an account on that computer and the corresponding password. The remote computer you want to connect to must be running an SSH server.
 +
 +The following figure shows that after successfully connecting to the remote computer, its name will be filled into the drop-down list and selected. For privacy, the right tree will only show the contents in one directory on the remote computer, which is the 'Biodosimetry' subdirectory under the default directory (on the Windows operating system, the default directory is (System drive):/Users/(User name)). Therefore, in order to be able to see the metaphase image files, they need to be first placed under the 'Biodosimetry' subdirectory on the remote computer.
