Notes and annotations

Capture notes describe the entire dataset. They are typically used to record setup conditions and make general observations as the capture progresses.

Annotations refer to specific points that you select on the graph. To add a note and specify the direction of the callout, click the Add annotation button: Grey Annotate button

Another really useful feature is that annotation history is recorded and listed in chronological order in the annotation pane. Zoom into the event in the graph display by clicking the Show in graph button:  Grey Show in graph button

Annotations provide a useful way of bookmarking events, questions and discussion topics when sharing .picolog files with colleagues. Further mouse clicks on this button continue to zoom into the event to see greater detail.

The annotation can also be edited with this button:

Including position, user text, and call-out direction.

Annotations can also be permanently deleted with this button:
