User Manual FKG-4 3 Special Functions
As the name implies, the positioning keys must be used to move the selected haircrosses. The
label points to the direction. It is possible to press more than one positioning key. If you do so,
the result is a diagonal movement.
Note: Nonsensical combinations of the positioning keys will be ignored!
Because of the high resolution of the FKG-4, a step-by-step movement would be a very an-
noying task. To combine exact positioning with a fast movement, the FKG-4 use a acceleration
function. The FKG-4 starts moving the haircross while the user holds the key pressed. This first
movement is slow. After a while, the movement becomes faster and faster. Currently, there are
four speed levels, which are driven by the time the key is hold pressed.
3 Special Functions
This section describes some special functions. To avoid unintentional use, the activation of these
function is combined with the
–. This means, that additional to the selection of the haircrosses,
the key
–must be pressed and held. Note that the order is important. First select a haircross
and than enter special mode by pressing the key
–.
3.1 Changing the line thickness
After selecting one or more haircrosses for special functions, the positioning keys can be used
to change the thickness of the horizontal and vertical lines.
Tip: Choose a thicker haircross to mark more important points!
You can use the keys
<and
>to change the width of the vertical lines. There are four
different values available. To toggle the height of the horizontal lines, press
∧or
∨.
3.2 Hiding haircrosses
It is not always desirable to have four haircrosses visible. In this case, it is possible to hide unused
haircrosses. Those crosses are only invisible, they still have there setup. After “unhiding” the
haircross, there previously position and configuration is restored.
To hide / unhide a haircross, select the cross for special functions and than press the key
+.
This hides visible haircrosses, or it restores hidden haircrosses.
