7.1 Waveform Snapshot Options Menu
This configures the screen layout, the waveform
snapshot parameters and user presets etc.
Waveform snapshots are made whenever the red ball
button in most menus is clicked. To use facility, the
filename should be first set up in the required
destination.
The auto number option automatically increments of
number appended to your chosen filename if required. If
the auto number option is unchecked, then the filename
given will be overwritten each time a snapshot is
confirmed.
The file format selected in the filename picker may be
either uncompressed .BMP or JPEG or another
compressed image format. When the compressed
image file format selected, then the compression quality
option buttons are revealed. For the highest quality
snapshot images select 1:1 and best.
If the image preview option is used then whenever the snapshot is
clicked on a temporary window pops up to confirm the waveform image
and filename. The default duration for the pop-up and five seconds.
This duration may be changed by clicking on the option box at the
bottom of the Snapshot Preview.
Snapshots of waveforms may be used for later comparison with a live
source by means of overlays. For this purpose always use highest
quality settings and 1:1 for optimum appearance.
