Scaling the x-axis and navigate to significant data
You can use the left and right mouse button to rescale the displayed area of the x-axis or move
the display to focus on the required data.
To do so, you will need to move the cursor over the x-axis until the cursor becomes a hand icon.
Then hold down the required mouse button and move the hand icon left or right along the x-
axis.
■
Both mouse buttons: moves the display area to the left or right.
■
Right mouse button: rescales the x-axis from the right, thus retaining left time value.
■
Left mouse button: rescales the x-axis from the left, thus retaining right time value.
