How to Create a Relative Limit Line
The easiest way to create a Relative limit line is to create a Fixed Limit at a
specific center frequency and reference level. Learn how

Build From Trace

A limit line can be built from an existing trace. One X/Y point is made from each
measured data point. Then, using an offset value, you can shift the limit line UP
for upper limits or DOWN for lower limits.
Once limit lines have been built from the trace, changes that you make to the
trace, such as frequency range, do NOT change the limits. However, the limit
line properties can be edited just like standard limit lines.
