Using Cursors
In eZ-Analyst cursors can appear as vertical lines that indicate an X Y axis intersect via an
asterisk (*), or can appear as an asterisk alone. Line and Point settings are made from the
Display Preferences window (following figure) which is accessed from the Edit Pull-down
menu. The window also allows you to change settings for cursor colors, the number of
cursors to be used in Peak and FreeForm modes, and select the desired type of cursor
movement.
Display Preferences Window, Areas Affecting Cursors
The graph toolbar, discussed on page 5-6, includes a button, which permits the user to cycle
through cursors by function. Each click of the button cycles to another type of cursor function.
Cursor and Annotation Buttons and Annotation Examples
The Cursor button is used to cycle through the following cursor types: No cursor, Single, Dual
(Band), SideBand, Peak, and FreeForm. The Annotation button cycles through: No annotation,
frameless annotation, and framed annotation. If annotations or cursors are not visible, check
the color settings in the Display Preferences window to ensure that you are not making use of,
for example, a white foreground on a white background.
Cursor-1, 2, and
nX boxes are
used to set cursor
colors.
Sets the
Annotation
frame color.
The “Line / Point” toggle
buttons are use to set the
cursor’s appearance to a full
line with an X Y intersect point,
or to a single intersect point.
Sets the Annotation text color.
If you do not see the
annotation, check the color
setting, it is likely the same as
your background or frame color.
