RichardK,
I can't think of a unique way to add to the mountain of thanks posted here for your work, so I'll simply say :clapping: again.
One thing I noticed in release beta17 was that if I change from a 1x to 10x probe in the GUI on the right, then look at the dropdown menu, the 1x is still checked in the dropdown. In fact, if I change from 1x to 10x in the dropdown, the check remains on the 1x entry when I return to that menu, and there is no effect on the GUI value. Ideally, the GUI and dropdown would be linked so that a change in one affects the other.
I also noticed that if I change the probe value while an autotrigger trace is presently running, there is no effect on the trace until I stop and restart the trace. It's not terribly important, as I wouldn't plan to swap probes in real life while a trace is running, but note the inconsistency, as updating either time or volts per division while a trace is running does have an immediate effect.
I only tried CH1 for the above, but maybe CH2 would be affected, too?
The "export image to BMP" is a feature I use often. If I could add to the wish list, I would want the exported image to show the text also, like the stock software does. The most important part is the time/DIV and volts/DIV, but if everything was exported, never know what would be useful to someone. This is not a high priority, as I can actually do a screen capture from Windows itself if necessary.
In dragging the horizontal line cursor, I noticed that the voltage difference is always displayed as a positive value. This could actually be a good thing, because as a user, I can tell from observation which is the higher and lower voltage, and there is no need to put a minus sign in front of a negative value.
Matchless,
Thanks for doing the documentation! Sooner or later, every one of us looks up things in the documentation, so it's important. I'm not finished reading through the whole thing, but here are a few observations.
1) I'm guessing that your English is British English, so a word like "colour" would be correct. Possibly "curser" is correct, also, but to me (I live in the USA) that's a person who uses crass language. "cursor" would be my spelling.
2) There is a section 6.c.c describing the behavior of the cross cursor. That sounds great. But just after that, 6.c.d says that the vertical line cursor displays "time, frequency, and voltage," when in fact, it only displays time and frequency. Similarly in 6.c.e, the horizontal line cursor only displays voltage, not all three.
3) In 7.a.i.1, I would suggest using the term "Phosphor Persistence" to be consistent with the naming in 7.a.i.2 immediately following.
Best Regards,
Roderick.
