Event Pane

Once the trace is acquired, you can change trace display parameters (such
as the grid and zoom window display). For more information, see Setting
Trace Display Parameters
on page 140.

Note: Drag the split bar between the trace display and tabs to change their

relative dimensions on the screen.

If you want to zoom in on an event selected in the events table, see Using
Zoom Controls
on page 137.

You can view all of the traces, in turn, in both the Trace Info pane and the
trace display with the navigation buttons. For more information, see
Displaying or Hiding a Trace on page 147.

Event Pane

You can view information about all detected events on a trace and fiber
sections by scrolling through the events table. When you select an event in
the events table, marker A appears on the trace over the selected event.
When the selected event is a fiber section, this fiber section is delimited by
two markers (A and B). For more information on markers, see Using
Markers
on page 187.

These markers pinpoint an event or a fiber section, depending on what is
selected in the events table. You can move markers directly by selecting an
element in the events table or on the graph.
