Is it possible to suppress kspar only and keep plagioclase?

thanks

Hi Olivier,

Sorry, kspar and plag are both 'feldspar' in MELTS so it's not possible to separately suppress one and not the other. I can't think of an obvious way to change that behaviour at the moment. It's a good idea though, so if it turns out to be possible then I'll put in the next version of the program. In the meantime, you might be able to fudge it by treating K as a trace element, instead of an oxide.
