Showing and Hiding Result Plots and Spectra
When displaying result spectra (NMR, UV/Vis, etc.) or result data plots (IRC,
Scan, etc.), there will frequently be multiple spectra or plots. In this
case, there are several controls to allow the user to selectively show or hide
these spectra / plots, which allows the user to concentrate on a specific one and compare
two of them next to each other. Some specific controls:
- In the Plots menu, each of the spectra / plots are listed by name.
Next to each name a check mark indicates that it is being shown and no check
mark indicates that it is hidden. Selecting a name in the menu toggles its
status between shown and hidden. Note, one plot must always be visible.
- The Show All option in the Plots menu makes all of the
spectra / plots visible.
- The Hide Other Plots option in the Plots menu will hide (make invisible)
all of the spectra / plots other than the currently active one.
- The Hide This Plot option in the Plots menu will hide (make invisible)
the currently active spectrum / plot (unless it is currently the only one visible).
- From a plot or spectrum context menu (accessed using the right mouse
button), selecting Show All Plots, Hide Other Plots, or Hide This Plot
is equivalent to the corresponding option in the Plots menu.
