Make the specimens virtual or temporarily transfer them to another container.

Update the dimensions and transfer the specimens back

*Even though reducing dimensions for non-empty containers isn't allowed, you can reduce dimensions if entire rows or columns are empty.

For example, in a 9x9 box where the first two rows are fully occupied (18 samples/container) and the remaining seven rows are empty, you can reduce the number of rows accordingly.
