Mark Panel

Mark Panel
Displays a list of marks added to the screen.

The Mark Panel can handle multiple datalists in tabs. However, the tab is not displayed in the initial state because there is only a default tab (Marks Tab). It is displayed when the tab becomes two or more by loading a new file or by adding a tab from the menu.

Image of Mark

Each mark has a square area rather than a point. You can create and display an image for the area of each mark by selecting an image size from the Image drop-down menu. And you can also specify individual image sizes or update images by selecting Image Size from the Thumbnail Context Menu.

The size of one side of the area (not image size (pixel) but area size (um)) can be specified by $Size on Detail setting which comes out by clicking Detail button. Refer to Advanced Configuration of Mark page.

Filtering Marks

You can narrow down the Marks to be displayed by entering display conditions in the Filter text box.

When a certain time period elapses after setting a filter condition or when you press Enter, the filter is applied. Only marks that match the conditons are displayed on screen and Mark Panel.

You can use formulas and functions in the Filter text box. Refer to Column Expressions page.

Example Display Condition
x < 100 Only Mark with x coordinate less than 100 is displayed.
x > 100 && y <= 100 Only Mark with x coordinate greater than 100 and y coordinate less than or equal to 100 is displayed.
abs(x) >= 100 Only Mark whose x coordinate is less than -100, equal to -100, greater than 100, or equal to 100 is displayed.
name == “Mark 3” Only Mark whose name is “Mark 3” is displayed.
name =* “Abc*” Only Mark whose name starts with “Abc” is displayed.
  • When the Filter text box is empty, all marks are displayed.
  • When an invalid expression is specified, the filter can not be applied. In this case, the textbox background is colored yellow.
