Customizing the Display
Use the display customizing features this instrument provides to present the
display elements — color, graticule style, waveform representation, and so on —
according to your preferences.
From the Color Palette, you can select temperature, spectral, or gray scale color
grading of a waveform so that its data color or intensity reflects the sample
density of the data in that area of the waveform.
Read the following topics; they provide the details that can help you set up the
the display system so that it displays waveforms and other display elements as
you prefer.
Display Settings. Table 3--8 lists display attributes that you can set and where
