Start a new line from a jar

Starting a new line makes a separate culture from one jar: its own ID, stage, protocol and schedule. The line it came from carries on as it was. A new line is not a subculture, which moves the same line on a round.

Pro plan
  1. On the line, choose Start new line, or Start new line from this jar in a jar's menu.
  2. If you didn't start from a jar, pick which jar it's coming from. Only jars something can still come out of are offered.
  3. Say how many jars the new line goes into, its protocol and its starting stage.
  4. Start it. The new line opens, and its jars are ready to label.

The new line's header reads “started from TC-000001, jar 5”, and the Lineage tab shows it under its parent. The jar it came from is marked as cut.
