Softtools
Softtools display groups of related settings as a tabbed panel. They can be opened via
function keys, or via menu bar and context menu items.
Figure 5-2: Scale softtool
A softtool is a tabbed panel with a close icon. When the softtool is closed, the close
icon is replaced by a "hamburger" icon. The latter allows you to reopen the softtool.
Some controls on the softtool tabs allow you to read and modify settings (e.g. "Ref
Value" in the screenshot above), some perform actions (e.g. "Auto Scale Trace"), while
others open additional dialogs (button label ends with "...").

Menu Bar
All analyzer functions are arranged in drop-down menus. The menu bar is located
across the bottom of the diagram:
As in any Windows
®
application, menus can be controlled with the touchscreen or a
mouse. A short tap (left mouse click) expands a menu or submenu. If a menu com-
mand has no submenu assigned, a short tap (left mouse click) opens a dialog or
directly activates the menu command. When a (sub)menu is selected, the R&S
ZNA
displays the corresponding softtool.
