DISPLAYING DATA
The left and right edges of the zoom box demarcate the range of values that, after
zooming, will be shown across the full width of the x-axis; the top and bottom edges
of the zoom box demarcate the range of values that will be shown over the full
height of the data-axis. Having drawn the zoom box, release the mouse button to
perform the zoom operation. The minimum 'zoomable' width is 30 pixels.
Note: You may wish to perform a Rescale (see later in this section) on data you have
just zoomed. Rescale will plot all recorded data values that fall within the new,
zoomed range of the x-axis against a newly calibrated data-axis. In this way you will
be able to see peaks and troughs that may have been clipped off by your zoom box.
See Preferences later in this section for details of additional zoom functionality
when you display data as an image.
If you have stretched a scale by zooming, you may 'slide' the scale to cover a
Scrolling
different range - the display will Scroll in synchrony with the moving scale. Place
the cursor arrow over the scale so that it changes to a finger flanked by arrows: now
depressing the primary mouse button allows you to 'slide' the scale up and down (or
left and right) and scroll the display.
If you place the finger cursor at either end of an axis you will notice that a single
arrow appears beside it, indicating the direction in which the scale will slide
automatically when you depress the primary mouse button: the display fast scrolls
accordingly.
Clicking the Reset button on the button bar of the Main Window, when a Data
Reset
Window (see above) is open, returns the displayed data to its original configuration -
undoing any adjustment to scale that you may have performed in accordance with
the descriptions given in Zooming In, Zooming Out and Scrolling above and Rescale
later in this section. Reset is available for all the Display Modes.
