Since Siglent is watching the thread and they're still fiddling with the firmware, maybe they'll find a better spot for the the time/div label. It should be on the same vertical or horizontal line as volts/div labels, so I guess it should be squeezed somewhere on the right side for this current layout.
I almost agreed with you until I had a good look at ALL the information that is on the right side already. That all needs to stay there! The Trigger settings box has 5 lines in Pattern mode! (Serial Decoding) Where else could you put or want that?
So to include time/div and Delay and Trigger state (which need to be together IMO)one would need 3 lines to display that info plus an appropriate sized box and border. There is just not that much room using the existing font. Font is the right size at a full arms reach, but if you eyes have aged....there is a little room to close boxes together, but some may wish for bigger font.
The frequency counter could be moved but where?
Things we don't know yet are what other icons populate the top bar?
We see a PC and USB and AWG icons plus AWG impedance setting but there is PC host and LAN connections that I do not yet know if they will be displayed or not.
So as you can see its a busy piece of real-estate.
Siglent have in the past displayed time/div at bottom center but with this series and 7 setting/function buttons at bottom of screen they had to go somewhere else.
Sorry but I have one in front of me and try as I might to visualize a different layout, I would leave it like it is.
Don't get me wrong .... great suggestion, keep them coming
Lets see if the others that have this model have any comments on your suggestion.
