Considerations about the use of
measurement tools in 3DView mode
When using the 3DView mode the tool’s spot displays the two inputs
simultaneously. It is valid for the Waveform, Histogram and Vectorscope.
To identify clearly the source, each spot uses a specific color.
The colors used are the same as those selected for the Anaglyph/Monochrome
mode.
The selection of the color is done in MENU/3D/…
i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED CYAN colors will display input 1 in RED and
input 2 in CYAN. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in
white, the differences in BLUE or CYAN.
i.e. Using the HISTOGRAM with RED/BLUE colors will display input 1 in RED and
input 2 in BLUE. The common values of the HISTOGRAM will be displayed in
MAGENTA, the differences in RED or BLUE.
