TLC Plate Object

Description:

Each plate contains a series of Lanes. Those lanes should be arranged on the plate from left to right in the order that they appear in the cdx file.

TLC Plates should not be assumed to be positioned vertically. The actual orientation can be determined from the four corner properties (kCDXProp_TopLeft, etc). Similarly, they should not be assumed to be orthogonal, although in most practical cases there will be 90° angles at each corner.

TLC Plate objects technically have no required properties or objects, but if the four corner properties are omitted, the plate will be assumed to have a zero-by-zero size, which isn't very useful. Similarly, at least one Lane would be helpful, and that lane should probably contain at least one Spot.
