Note that the dimension and index list of a transfer block is derived from the dimension and index lists of it’s source and target compartments. The transfer will only have the indices that are shared by the source and target. | Note that the dimension and index list of a transfer block is derived from the dimension and index lists of it’s source and target compartments.
