8.2.1 Setting Up User Masks
8.2.1.1 Creating New User Masks
There are two ways to create a new mask:
Graphical way by tapping the mask points on the touch screen,
Numerical entry of the x- and y-values of the mask points.
You can combine both methods. For example, at first you enter the mask quickly on the
touch screen, and then modify the point coordinates with precise values.
To create a mask graphically on the touch screen
1. Tap the "Masks" icon on the toolbar.
2. Tap the corner points of the mask segment on the touch screen.
3. To finish the segment and mask definition, double-tap the last point, or tap the
"Select" icon on the toolbar.
Note: Tapping any icon on the toolbar finishes the mask definition.
4. Tap outside the mask to deselect the mask segment.
You can also enter only two points to create a line. When you finish the mask segment
by double-tapping the second point, the display region above or below the line is defined
