N.NNx in on-screen display. Another tool for controlling the scaling of the histogram. This
option will magnify the Y-axis (vertical) if less than 20% of the histogram area is filled. The
purpose of this function is to make the histogram easier to read when there are very tall peaks.
This function lies somewhere between the Linear and Log options above. A red dot over a peak
indicates that it’s been clipped due to the magnification. The amount of magnification applied is
displayed over the histogram.
