Use arrow keys or toolbar buttons to zoom
Zooming can be done from both x-axis and y-axis of chart element by dragging the area you want to zoom
Double click axis and whole range will be shown
Mouse wheel can be used to zoom in and zoom out. Mouse cursor needs to be on top of zoomed axis.
Drag axis with secondary mouse button.

Cursor mode

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

Action	Default mode	Alternative mode
Data cursor to follow mouse	Automatic	Press mouse button while moving mouse
Fix cursor to one position	Click mouse button	Click mouse button
Release cursor position	Click mouse button	N/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

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.
