Extractor Pane

The Extractor pane displays each step of the workflow of which the primary goal is to extract data from the data sample.

Step Manipulation

  • Adding a Step: To add steps to the extractor, use the Toolbar buttons or create the steps from the Data Viewer.
  • Removing a Step: To remove a step, right-click on the step and click Delete step or use the Delete step button in the Toolbar. If the step is a Repeat or Condition, all steps under it are also deleted.

    You can also use Drag & Drop to move steps.
