DigiView Navigation
Navigating the Data
DigiView implements extensive use of the
mouse in the WaveView windows to make navigation through the data much easier
than other PC based Analyzer systems. The general paradigm is to find points of
interest, bring them to the center of the screen and then ZOOM. We provide
several methods of finding edges and bringing them to the center of the screen
so that you can zoom in and out without having to constantly scroll to
'zero-in' on the point of interest.
- Cursors ( Markers) - Markers
have several uses. They can be used to measure time, to 'bookmark' locations
and to help bring data to the center of the screen.
- Tool Bar Buttons - We make
extensive use of the right mouse button. Most functions have naturally paired
operations. Most paired functions are natural opposites (like left/right,
in/out, first/last, previous/next). DigiView takes advantage of this symmetry
to double up the functions of most buttons and other clicks. This not only
reduces desktop usage but also results in more natural, easier to remember
functions.
- Hot Keys - The HOT-KEYs are not
expected to replace a mouse, but rather, supplement it. When analyzing lots of
data, it can be useful to use the keyboard for say, ZOOMING and SCROLLING while
using the mouse for cursor control.
