Here you will find out how to adjust the display of the measured intensity values in charts and tables according to your wishes.

  1. You are in the MeanROI view or MeanROI Setup.
  2. You have defined at least one ROI.
  1. Select the Layout tab in the view options.
  2. To adjust the layout of the image and diagram display, select the desired display mode under Image and Chart.
  3. If you also want your data to be displayed in table form (note for MeanROI setup the table is only displayed after the acquisition is completed), select the desired display mode under Image and Chart with Table. With the Export tab, you can export the data table directly as a comma separated values file or create a separate data table document.
    Tables created in this manner contain additional information, for details see Basics of Calculation of Intensity and Ratio Values. The table in the MeanROI view only shows two values per ROI and time point, the mean intensity of pixels above the set threshold per channel and the mean ratio value derived from (common) "valid" pixels.
  4. In the MeanROI view (not the MeanROI setup) you can interact with a table in various ways. See Interaction with a Table in MeanROI View.
  5. You can determine the zoom (range) of the charts of all given channels (including Ratio charts) by clicking on the chart, selecting it, and scrolling with the mouse wheel.
  6. For Offline Analysis only: Select a suitable layout for the image, chart and table display.
  7. If you want to adjust the axis scaling (range), go to the Charts tab in the view options.
  8. To define the minimum and maximum values of the axes manually, click on the Fixed button under X-/Y-Axis.
  9. The Min and Max input fields for the axis are activated.
  10. Enter the desired values first into the Max and then the Min input fields.
  11. The minimum and maximum axis values of the diagrams are adjusted. Note that the Y-axis scaling can be adjusted individually for each chart.
  12. To change the unit of the X axis, click on the Fixed button under X Units.
  13. The dropdown menu for the units is activated. You can now select the desired unit.
  14. On the Layout tab, it is also possible to determine if a given channel view and/ or chart panel should be hidden. This is useful if these do not contain information that needs to be visible, thus increasing space on the screen for the remaining items. For example, in many applications transmitted light is used to monitor the specimen, but the intensity information (chart) is not required. The controls behave in a similar manner to the channel toggles on Dimensions tab.
  1. You have successfully adjusted the display of the intensity values.
