4-18 ChartView Software Reference NetScan User’s Manual
Display config. Allows you to: Open a previously saved display configuration file, save the current
display configuration file, or save the current display configuration file in a di f ferent
location (or under a different file name). (See following note).
Note: There will be no default Display Configuration file present the first time ChartView is
started. In this case, Chart Setup Wizard activates, allowing you to create a display
setup. When ChartView is shutdown, the display configuration is aut om atically saved in
a default configuration file that will load upon the next startup of ChartView.
If the default display configuration becomes corrupt, or if you would like to bypass this
configuration when starting ChartView, you can hold down the Control Key when
starting ChartView. This causes the program to ignore the default displ ay c onfiguration
and await your creation of a new display.

Zoom
[ Restore ] Zoom causes the Main Window to display one chart only. For example, if you were
viewing 3 charts and desired to get a better view of Chart 2, you could use Zoom to
view Chart 2 using the full chart viewing area, as compared to using one third of the
area. The zoom feature can also be invoked by double-clicking in the chart region of
the chart you want to apply the zoom to.
Once you have zoomed in on a chart, the pull-down menu Zoom option is replaced by a
Restore option. Selecting Restore from the menu will return the main window to its
previous multiple chart viewing status. The restore feature can also be invoked by
again double-clicking in the chart region.
