Line chart zoom demo

Analyzer support two data cursor modes. By default cursor in line charts will follow mouse movements and with alternative mode user needs to click primary button of the mouse to place/move the cursor in data.

Cursor mode can be changed from application settings. 

Cursor can be dragged with primary mouse button in both cursor modes.

Differences in the cursor behaviour

ActionDefault modeAlternative mode
Data cursor to follow mouseAutomaticPress mouse button while moving mouse
Fix cursor to one positionClick mouse buttonClick mouse button
Release cursor positionClick mouse buttonN/A

If the default cursor performance is bad, then we recommend switching to the alternative cursor mode from settings.

Disabling cursor markers improve cursors performance on tabs with multiple line charts.

Delta marker allows for comparing selected positions value to cursors value.

Marker is set with toolbar button or alternatively with space hotkey. 

Line legends display the cursors value and its difference to the cursors value.

Comparing works for both compared files if present.
