trying to create txt input

Hi @animesh,
I think the issue with these files is that the m/z values are out of order. It looks like it is reading the data properly, but it expects a sorted list of m/z. Try applying a simple sort and see if that works. However, there is already a raw reader in the software, so you might not need to write your own. Thanks, MTM

Thanks @michaelmarty for such a quick response! I tried sorting the values and at least the display doesn't look so messy after

probably input [210112__solveig_AN0.raw.intensityThreshold1000.PPM10.errTolDecimalPlace3.Time20210128191052.MS.txt] is incorrect still/needs some more pre-proc?

Hi @animesh,
Yep! The data import looks good. I am pretty sure the error is coming from the fact that your data is really large, and the computer is running out of memory in a critical part. I think you can fix this by setting the Peak FWHM to 0. I am planning to put in a test for this. Thanks, MTM

[animesh]

Wondering where is this FWHM setting in UniDec @michaelmarty ? BTW if i convert to mzML and then import i get a totally different picture

so it could just be issue of how i am presenting the ions in txt file, which is just essentially all the ions and its (sum)Intensity sorted on mz values, probably every scan has to go separately in txt file?

[michaelmarty]

The FWHM is under the additional Deconvolution Parameters. Yeah, each scan will have a slightly different m/z value, so if you just flatten all the scans, it will give you crazy big data. We use a merge scan function to determine the average resolution and then sum the data to match that for mzML data. For Waters and Thermo data, we actually use the scan averaging built in their DLL files. Not sure how it works, though...
