Cursor Reader and Markers

Cursor reader is shown when you left click and hold anywhere within the plot region in a view. It will stick to the actual measurement point nearest to the cursor in the horizontal direction and show its X and Y readings for both channels on the top region of the view. The cursor reader moves with the cursor and remains active until the left mouse button is released.

In Lissajous Pattern display, the cursor reader will show the X and Y readings at exactly the cursor position and will not stick to the actual measurement point.

Maximum two markers can be placed in the plot region in a view.

Double clicking the left mouse button anywhere within the plot region will place a marker on the screen at the actual measurement point nearest to the position of mouse click in the horizontal direction. Left double clicking places a marker for the left vertical axis while CTRL-Left double clicking places a marker for the right vertical axis. No marker will be placed if there is no corresponding vertical axis.

The second marker can be placed by Shift-Left double clicking or Shift-CTRL-Left double clicking.

Clicking anywhere outside the plot region in the view will remove all markers placed previously.

The horizontal and vertical readings of a marker will be displayed on the top region of the view. If two markers are placed, the reading difference between them will also be displayed.
