Trace Manager allows the user to see and modify all traces/channels/windows/sheets/formats
in one table. The changes are updated immediately.
There is one row for each trace. By Clicking on a column heading
will display the rows in ascending or descending order as defined
by that column.
A row is selected by clicking on any cell in the row and the
popup menu for the cell will appear. Multiple rows can be selected
by click-drag-release. All selected rows will be highlighted and
popup menu for the column will appear.

Trace Column
User is not able to edit trace
numbers. User may select multiple rows; this allows user to delete
multiple traces using the popup menu.
There is a special case where the trace entry in the row is
empty. This is used to show when there is an empty window. If
the users select this row and choose "Delete Trace",
it will delete the empty window; this is a convenient feature;
it is deleting a null trace.
New Trace To add a new trace. Selecting the
cell will open the "Meas" dialog.
Delete Trace The selected trace will be deleted.
Table Columns
A pop up dialog is opened
which allows user to define the columns visible in the table.
The default table column is: Meas/Class/Channel/Windows/Sheet.
Meas Column
Selecting the cell will open the "Meas" dialog. User
cannot select multiple rows from a Meas cell.
Class Column
Selecting the cell will open the "Measurement Class"
dialog. User cannot select multiple rows from a Class cell.
When the measurement class is changed, all traces numbers on
the currently active channel will be assigned to the new measurement
class. The window and sheet settings will be the same, but the
"Meas" setting will be changed to default values for
the selected class.
Channel Column
Selecting the cell will open a pulldown, and will select the
row. User can click and drag to select multiple rows.
User may use the pulldown to reassign the active trace to another
channel and delete the active channel.
When the channel for a trace is changed, the "Meas"
setting will likely be changed.
Window Column
Selecting the cell will open a pulldown, and will select the
row. User can click and drag to select multiple rows.
Changing the layout of the
windows will reset window titles.
User may use the pulldown to reassign the active trace to another
window, delete the active window and all traces on that window
and change the layout of the windows.
If the active row has no trace assigned, then the window pulldown
will not allow user to change the window number.
Sheet Column
Selecting the cell will open a pulldown, and will select the
row. User can click and drag to select multiple rows.
User may use the pulldown to reassign the active trace to another
sheet, delete the active sheet and all traces on that sheet and
change the layout of the sheets.
If the active row has no trace assigned, then the sheet pulldown
will not allow user to change the sheet number.
