When should Make replace studio paste for a sensor log with 120 rows?

Use Make when the sensor log already lives in a file with 120 rows and the numbers should keep their locale separators. Use studio paste when you are placing a title, an annotation, or a palette on a form you already trust. Make reads the file. The studio edits the picture. Starting in the wrong one means typing the table twice.

If the sensor log is a CSV or a spreadsheet of 120 rows, open Make so locale numbers stay intact. Open the studio when the data are already a chart and you are only changing the title, the note, or the palette. Do not retype a large table into the canvas.

What Make reads

Make takes the file of the sensor log and keeps separators for the locale, so 120 rows do not turn commas into extra columns. That is the point of starting there when the sheet already exists.

What the studio edits

The studio is for the picture of a sensor log you already accept: title length, a source footnote, a palette. It is a poor place to paste 120 rows by hand.

Locale numbers

A sensor log of 120 rows can use a comma or a point as the decimal mark. Make follows the locale sample. Pasting the same sheet into the studio without that care splits values and silently changes the chart.

Do not type it twice — make-vs-paste-sensors

If you already cleaned the sensor log in a sheet of 120 rows, Make should be the first page. The studio comes after, for the sentence around the chart, not for a second entry of the numbers.

This page chooses Make or the studio for a sensor log of 120 rows. It does not upload your file and it does not change how the studio sanitizes a shape.

Questions

Does Make choose the chart for the sensor log?
It builds from the file. The chooser still decides whether that sensor log of 120 rows should be a bar, a line, or a table. Make does not replace that rule.
Can I paste 120 rows into the studio instead?
Only for a tiny check. A full sensor log of 120 rows belongs in Make so separators survive. The studio paste is for a short edit, not a second database.
Where does the source line of the sensor log go?
After the file is in, add it in the studio as a footnote. Make does not write the sentence. A sensor log of 120 rows still needs a human source line.
