We have multiple HSQC spectra in a project. We want to copy a peak list to one other spectra from the original spectrum. The program copies a new peak list to ALL of the other spectra that are loaded when we just want to pass it to one of them. is there a way to turn this feature off? Thank you!
Hi,
I’m surprised by this. Which version are you using and how are you copying the peaklists?
I was trying this by dragging a PeakList into a SpectrumDisplay. I then get a pop-up where I can select all the target spectra (by default all spectra in the Display are included, but right-click/Remove allows you to remove any you don’t want). And this seems to be working as it should (i.e. it doesn’t copy the list the spectra it shouldn’t.
Similarly if you go to Spectrum / Copy PeakList you can remove any spectra to which you don’t want to copy the peakList - though I think you are right, by default it lists all spectra with compatible dimensions.
So it could just be that you didn’t realise that you can do the right-click / Remove or Remove All thing?

Hi Vicky,
I am choosing “Copy peak list” from the drop down menu under “Spectrum”. I then select the spectrum to copy FROM, followed by the spectrum to copy TO. Once these are selected, I submit the request in the GUI. All of a sudden, I see peak lists propagate to all of my spectra at the left of the project display. It’s quite a sight! We are using V3.4.0

How bizarre. I can’t seem to replicate this.
So when you have selected your TO Spectrum, is that the only one listed in the TargetSpectra box below the drop-down? It will copy to all Spectra listed in that box.
You shouldn’t have to resort to this, but you can otherwise try it on the command line:
Press Space, Space to open the Python Console.
In the lower part, type
get('PL:85.2').copyTo(get('SP:95'))
where the PL bit is the code/pid for the PeakList you are copying and SP the one for the Spectrum you are copying to. (If you want you can right-click on a Spectrum/PeakList in the sidebar to to copy the pid to the clipboard.)
That really should only copy to one spectrum.
Thank you Vicky!
We’ll give the command line a try and let you know how it goes.
