Part A — Getting Started 45GridsGrid superimposes a set of horizontal and vertical lines on the graph window. The grid is designed to allow foreasy measurements, since the grid lines correspond to horizontal and vertical scale divisions. The grid can belocked (analysis, printing) or unlocked (visual aid).To activate the grid display, choose Display > Show > Grid or click thetoolbar icon.• To display minor grid lines, use Ctrl- .• To customize grid line and color and optimize the display and print features, choose Display > Show > GridOptions.For more information about using and printing grids, see page 70.Note: The Scale dialogs change when grid lines are locked. See page 66 for details on Horizontal Scale and page67 for details on Vertical Scale.Horizontal Split ViewHorizontal Split View is a tool for “splitting” the data in a single graph into two simultaneously viewable areasand displaying them side-by-side for convenient viewing. Split View is available for data plotted in scope, chartor stacked plot modes. Both views can contain independent time scales, initial offset and autoscroll settings. Thiscan be useful for making side-by-side comparisons of data at different time ranges, or for reviewing the samesection of data in two separate time scales for more detailed examination. Split View configurations and scalingscan be saved and restored in the graph.Split View can be activated via the following methods:• Choosing Display > Split View. This divides the graph into two equal regions with independent time scales,and the bar in the center can be dragged to the desired location.• Clicking the Split View bar in the horizontal scale area. The Split View bar is indicated bythe appearance of a double-arrowed cursor when the left border of the horizontal time scaleis moused over. After the cursor appears, hold and drag the cursor to create the desiredSplit View.In the above example, the view in the left pane was rescaled independently of the view of the same data on theright pane. This enables a closer view of an area of interest while maintaining the original data display. If a SplitView encompasses any events, annotations or focus areas, these will be visible in both panes.BSL PRO Manual
