Unable to selectively trigger multiple windows

Post by georgeg »

Running v5.20.1, I set up identical scope windows, but cannot get trace to be triggered/saved in "the" selected window. Appears to save trace randomly between the open windows. Clues anybody?

HI georgeg,

Could you explain a little further, if they are both identical then how do you know it has saved the wrong one? Is it because you put measurements on the other one?

Kind regards

I created another window with "Duplicate view" to ensure same settings(except for the "Notes" section). The issue is I will click on (highlight) the window I want to save the waveform in, have the capture single trigger running, but when the impulse waveform arrives, it goes into the other window. It appears to go to either window at random.

Hi georgeg,

I think I managed to recreate this I have informed the software engineers of this. What scope are you using by the way?

Kind regards

I'm using PicoScope3224. The reason I'm using v5.20.1 is that v6 does not copy "Notes" across when copy/pasting. Umm, there's a few bugs out there! Any idea on timeframe when either of these bugs are sorted?

HI georgeg,

When you mean version 6 does not copy the notes, do you mean when you copy the image?

Kind regards

Yes, copy as image from edit tab does not copy the "notes" datablock. Printing the image however does work!
