Editing a mask

To edit a mask in Mask Limit Testing mode, right-click on the scope view and

select Edit Mask:

A mask is made up of one or more shapes called polygons. Click on the polygon you

wish to edit. PicoScope will then draw edit handles on the selected mask polygon and

display the mask edit box. If you drag any of the handles to edit the polygon, the

statistical results will be updated immediately.

The mask edit box looks like this:

Normal view

If the edit box is not immediately visible, it may have been minimized; in which case,

click the restore button: . If you edit the coordinates of a vertex, the statistical

results will be updated immediately. You can also export the mask to a .mask file with

the export button: . Use the + and - buttons to add or remove vertices. The

minimize button has its usual function. To leave mask editing mode, close the mask

edit box with the close (X) button.
