(2) Using the overlay
Showing/hiding the overlay
You can use the [OVERLAY] button in the [TOOL MENU:
MEAS/DRAW] or [TOOL MENU: SCALE] screen to show or hide
the overlay.

MENU: SCALE] screen.

Tapping this button hides the overlay. To show the overlay
again, tap the button again.
When the overlay is automatically displayed
A hidden overlay is automatically displayed when any
measurement or drawing button is tapped in the [TOOL
MENU: MEAS/DRAW] menu.
Showing/hiding annotations
Since annotations (text, straight lines, arrows,
free-hand lines, and markers) are drawn on the overlay,
they can be shown or hidden by showing or hiding the
overlay.
Erase the overlay content
You can erase the overlay content in one operation. To do this:
1 Display the [TOOL MENU: MEAS/DRAW] screen.
2 Tap [ERASE ALL].
A confirmation message appears.
3 If you are sure you want to erase all overlay content, tap
[Yes]. If you are not, tap [No].
Information rendered in the overlay is cleared.
About the erased overlay content
 The content will not be restored once cleared.
 Tapping [ERASE ALL] erases all annotations and
measurement results that have been drawn. You
cannot partially erase the overlay content. However,
you can erase only a specific type of item drawn on
the overlay. To do so, in [MEAS/DRAW MENU], tap
the button for the desired type of measurement or
drawing, and then, in the submenu that appears, tap
[ERASE ALL].
