5. The insertion list shows the insertions in the active experiment. You can rename insertions, delete them from the experiment, and enable/disable them in the 3D scene. Coming soon: we will add options to mark insertions as "recorded" so that we can calculate coverage maps for experiments.

6. Any time your local data is out-of-sync with the data stored on the server the "unsaved changes" message will appear. If you are using Pinpoint in a browser **please note that unsaved changes do not get saved if you exit the browser**, the program auto-saves changes about once a minute. If you are using Pinpoint in a desktop app, exiting will automatically save all changes.

## Surgery
189180

190181
To use your coordinates for a surgery, rotate the manipulator to match the azimuth angle (phi) and set the probe elevation angle (theta). Then move your probe tip to Bregma and zero your manipulator. (Optional: move your probe tip to Lambda and record the distance from Bregma to Lambda, then enter that into the Atlas settings in Pinpoint). We recommend using the technique shown in ![this reference](https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Schematic-diagram-of-stereotactic-surgery-and-variations-of-bregma-and-lambda-A-Dorsal_fig1_362675943) when estimating the position of Bremga and Lambda on the skull (i.e. align the "curve" between the sutures, not the exact point where they attach).
