Linear View

When you select an event or a fiber section in the events table or in the
graph, the linear view automatically scrolls to display the element.

You can also select a rounded square or an horizontal line and the
corresponding item will be selected in the events table or in the graph.

The linear view always displays the current trace.

A red triangle appears next to the event number to indicate that a
comment has been inserted manually. For more information, see
Events Tab on page 99.

The linear view cannot be displayed when the events table is empty.
Traces must have been analyzed before you can see them in the linear
view.

There are three display modes:

Split: You can switch between events information or fiber sections
by clicking on the tab button.
