New TOPAS user (Previos HS experience)

ByronB

Hi all

I have knowledge on the HighScore software and recently have started basic interactions with TOPAS/EVA and I am finding the transition to be quite challenging...

My latest struggle... I am trying to obtain the elemental compositions/calculated chemistry results for a refined pattern (quant analysis). This was relatively simple to obtain in the HS software however I cannot seem to locate this function in TOPAS. I am probably missing a rather simple step but I would appreciate some assistance.

TOPAS V6 currently being used.

TIA
Byron

Are you in input file mode, or in the GUI?

In an input file, you need the keyword elemental_composition

In the GUI, you nee the "Structures/hkl Phases" -> "Internal standard Method" menu items that are under the file you loaded, and then choose the "Elemental Composition" tab.

rowlesmr Thank you.

Managed to find it, apologies.
Struggling to work my way around TOPAS, 10years of HighScore experience will do that.

No worries. Most of the issues in new software is finding where the button is.
