Click a Recipe name (which has previously been saved using the Save As button) and the highlighted values on the GDW will change to the stored values.
Click the Send button to write the values to the instruments.
If required, the values may be edited before sending (click a highlighted value on the GDW to edit it). The changes may be stored by clicking Save (overwriting the existing Recipe) or Save As (save as a new Recipe).
The Recipe defines the set of variables, and there can only be one of these per GDW, but there can be up to 1295 different sets of values for these variables which are saved as files to disk.
Recipe names may be any length and include spaces and any special characters.
As of SpecView version 3.1.253, Recipe Filtering was introduced.
Recipe Filtering enables users to search through Recipe names.
For example, searching for the string '100' will return any Recipe Name with those characters in it as seen in the image below.

Recipe Filtering supports wild cards of '*' and '?'.
For example, searing the string '*1??1*' will return Recipe Names such as Auto_1001.
This is seen in the image below.

As of SpecView 3.1.275, Recipe Manager text can now scale better with the size of the Recipe Manager window. When the window is enlarged, the font can be increased for better readability or reduced to display more Recipe Names at once, giving users greater control over how Recipe information is viewed.
| 1. | Navigate to the Project Folder. |
| 2. | Open Settings.INI file. |
| 3. | Navigate to the [Recipe] section of the file. |
| 4. | Add the command “FontResizeRatio=X”. |
| a. | X is the value by which the user wants the font to be scaled when the Recipe Manager box is enlarged. For more Recipe Names to appear when the box is enlarged, use a X value lower than 1. For larger text to appear when the box is enlarged, use a X value greater than 1. |
| b. | In the image below, the X value is fractionally smaller than 1 to ensure that more Recipe Names are visible when the box is enlarged. |
