To open all windows simultaneously, click Restore All Windows on
the function bar. To open one individual window, double-click the title
bar of the window.
When you finish a measurement, the display windows and the input
instruments are visible in the foreground and cover the worksheet. To edit the
worksheet, click Minimize All Display Windows on the function bar.
DASYLab displays only the title bars at the bottom of the screen. To hide the
windows from the screen completely, click Hide All Display Windows on
the function bar. If you start a measurement now, you must click Show All
Windows to make the display windows and input instruments visible again.
Before, during, and after a measurement you can move and resize display
windows and input instruments. DASYLab saves the arrangement and the
size of the windows together with the worksheet. In each worksheet you can
save up to eight different arrangements in order to display other windows
during a measurement or to resize individual windows. To save the current
window arrangement select View»Save Window Arrangement. For
example, enter
MyScreen as the name and specify the position in the
selection list of the function bar. To select this saved window arrangement at
a later time, select MyScreen in the selection list. You also can use the key
combination and the number of the window arrangement, for example,
for MyScreen. To input the numbers, use the numbers at the top of
your keyboard because DASYLab distinguishes these from the number pad.
To delete the current arrangement, select View»Delete Current Window
Arrangement.
The display windows of the chart recorder, the Y/t chart, the x/y chart, the
polar plot, and the list have a menu bar and a function bar in order to change
the display during a measurement. You can display all connected data
channels in one axis system or each data channel in a separate axis system,
and you can change the axis scaling. You can zoom, scroll, and measure areas
in the display, and you can freeze the display and copy it to the clipboard and
print it.
If you connect several data channels to these display instruments, which
display measurement data as curves, the data channels must provide data of
the same type. You only can display continuous, triggered, spectral, or
histogram data in a display window. Triggered data has gaps between the
consecutive data blocks. Spectral data are results, for example, of an FFT and
histogram data is the result of a classification. Use several modules to display
different data in a worksheet. The chart recorder and the diagram are
