simultaneous
Zoom operation will change the zoom range of all displayed system of coordinates if this option is activated.

remark:
If you start a zoom operation using the pull down menu of the main menu bar all actions will change the displayed range of  the system of coordinates no.1 which is normally the reference system.

We recommend to start  a zoom operation with the local popup zoom menu of each system of coordinates which will be shown, if you perform a single click into a system of coordinates. This popup menu contains all described zoom operations.  

 

display view

This menu item provides a dialog with all necessary controls to make display view settings for all configured channels and also for all needed system of coordinates.

Please take note of the following explanations for better understanding.

Every channel is displayed in a system of coordinates. All system of coordinates are shown in the window named „window no.:1“. It is possible to display up to eight system of coordinates in this window, which you can tile horizontally or vertically. It is also possible to assign any number of channels to a single system of coordinates.

channel  
this submenu item opens the dialog for the view settings of the channels.

You will get an overview of all settings of all configured channels in a table. Each row contains the actual settings of one channel.
If you would like to make changes, you only have to click with the left mouse button into a row. Operation with keyboard is also possible: move the table marker with the cursor control keys to the desired field of the table and press the space key. You will get a further dialog which allows you to change all settings. 

NEW : Possibilities for automatic storage of settings-files (by closing windows with OK-button)

            All setting-files are now saved automatically by closing the corresponding settings-dialogue with OK-button

            Loading of setting-files

            Now another option for loading of setting files (here display view settings) is available

You can change the following settings for each channel:

If you want to change the color of the channel you only have to click on the color shape on the right side of the table.
If you terminate the dialog with the „OK“ button your changes will be accepted and the display view of the channels will be updated.
remark to the number of the system of coordinates:
You will find the number on the upper right corner of the system of coordinates.
