  2. 02Map the main steps

    Add nodes for smear preparation, fixation, primary stain, decolorization, counterstain, rinse, and observation.

  3. 03Add decision points

    Insert branches for color outcomes or timing decisions that determine the next step.

  4. 04Customize and label

    Use colors, icons, and concise text to distinguish reagents, wash steps, and microscopic observations.
