Chart Pop-up Menu
ChartView Main Window with Chart Pop-up Menu and “Chart Properties”Dialog Box
When you place the mouse cursor over a chart and right-click a pop-up menu appears. The menu
provides a means to perform the following tasks. Note that the term “selected chart” refers to the chart
from which the pop-up menu was accessed. In the preceding figure Chart 2 is the selected chart.
• Edit current channel – Brings up the Chart Display Configuration Setup dialog box for the
current channel of the selected chart. See Using the pop-up menus’ Edit current channel
feature on page CV-9 for detailed information.
• Zoom chart / Un-Zoom chart – Zoom chart causes the selected chart to occupy the entire
ChartView main window. After the zoom-in, the pop-up menu’s “Zoom chart” selection is
replaced by an “Un-zoom” option. The latter returns the ChartView window to its previous
display of multiple charts (if applicable). Note that double-clicking the left mouse button will
also zoom or un-zoom the selected chart.
• Clear chart – erases all channels from the selected chart. Timestamps, if shown, are also
cleared. If charts are scrolling, the channels will begin to chart again, immediately following
the “clear chart” action. Note that the clear action does not reset a relative timestamp to
00:00:00.
• Clear all charts and timestamps - erases all channels from the all charts. Timestamps, if
shown, are also cleared. If charts are scrolling, the channels will begin to chart again,
immediately following the action. Note that the clear action does not reset relative
timestamps to 00:00:00.
• Restore all chart properties – Synchronizes the charts and resets them to the default
settings. Grids are turned on and aligned with other; timestamps are off, the scroll rate of 1
sec/div is selected, and the limit line option is turned off.
• Synch all charts timestamps – This feature synchronizes charts, but does not alter their
settings. The feature is used to align all chart grids and timestamps.
• Main Timestamp visible - A checkmark appears by this selection when it is enabled and a
timestamp will appear just above the LED section at the bottom of the ChartView window.
When disabled, the checkmark disappears and no main timestamp will be visible. The “Main
Timestamp visible” actions have no bearing on the timestamps for individual charts.
