Markers

Isoplot, Chromatogram, Spectral and 3D views feature one or two markers (thin lines of inverse color crossing the data plot) depicting current position in the data.

For many operations (e.g. adding spectrum to library, adding signal, selecting peak, etc.) the current time or wavelength serves as a point where the operation takes place.

Markers also specify slices of 3D data that are displayed as curves in Chromatogram and Spectral views (see below).

  • Time marker (vertical marker shown in Isoplot and Chromatogram views) moves over time axis and depicts spectrum currently displayed in the Spectral view.
  • Wavelength marker (horizontal in Isoplot, vertical in Spectral view) moves over wavelength axis depicting current chromatogram curve in the Chromatogram view.
  • Markers can be moved by holding the left mouse button while cursor is over the marker (cursor changes to or ) and dragging it with the mouse.
  • Another possibility is to use Move Marker(s) Here command from the context menu of the given view. The function moves one or both markers to position of the right mouse click that popped up the menu. This is useful while the view is zoomed and marker(s) may not be visible. With Move Marker(s) Here marker(s) can always be brought within visible range.
