Adding, Removing and Editing Factors

Before building your design, make sure you have the correct number of factors and that each factor is defined appropriately.

Note that if a factor appears red in the navigation panel (as shown next), then it is incompatible with the selected design type. The reason will be displayed in red text next to the selected design.

Note: For robust design folios, factors are configured separately for the inner array and the outer array. For example, you could use two factors (e.g., pressure and viscosity) for the inner array and one factor (e.g., humidity) for the outer array. Similarly, for mixture design folios, factors are configured separately for mixture factors and process factors, if applicable.

Adding and Removing Factors

There are three ways to add or remove factors from a design.

  1. You can choose Design> Factors > Add Factor.

You can remove a factor by selecting it in the navigation panel and choosing Design > Factors > Remove Factors.

  1. You can also add/remove factors by right-clicking a factor and choosing the appropriate option from the shortcut menu.

  1. To quickly add or remove several factors at once, you can click the Factors heading and then change the number in the Number of Factors drop-down list in the input panel, as shown next.

Note than when you decrease the number of factors using the drop-down list, the factors at the bottom of the list will be deleted first.

Editing Factors

You can define the properties of an individual factor by selecting it in the navigation panel and editing its properties in the input panel, as shown next for a standard design folio.

Alternatively, you can edit all the factors simultaneously by clicking the Modify Factors icon in the navigation panel ( ).

The following properties are available for factors in all design folios:

These properties are available only for factors in standard design and robust design folios.

These properties are available only for factors in mixture design folios.
