Chapter 3. Display Windows
3.1 Main Window
Most operators prefer to run LBA-USB maximized to fill the screen. This provides
immediate access to as much information as possible. We also recommend operating at
a minimum of 1024x768 screen resolution. Increase the resolution if your graphics
hardware, monitor and vision support it.
The Main Window is divided into five regions. These are described from top to bottom:
 Title Bar – The Product ID, version level, and copyright are listed here, along with the
configuration file currently in use.
 Menu Bar – To gain access to the various operational and setup dialog boxes, click on
the menu items. To activate Ultracal! processing, or to Start! and Stop! data
acquisition, click on these menu action items.
 Toolbars – The user determines the available toolbars within the Toolbar dialog box
located in the Options menu.
 Child Window area – This largest region is where the child windows of LBA-USB
appear. Three of these child windows can be resized, and all can be minimized. The
possible child windows:
• Beam Display
• Results Display
• Pan/Zoom Display
• Tilt/Rotate Display
• Histogram Display
 Status Bar – Indicates status information regarding the above displays.
 Beam Stability – This is not actually a part of the Main Window. When activated, it
launches a totally separate application window that can be manipulated independently
from the main LBA-USB application.
