Table Chart properties
All settings assigned to the Table Chart can be made here
Fig.1: Behaviour
AutoStart | If this option is enabled, the chart starts the live display when a new recording is started. |
Data Tool Tip | If this option is activated, a tool tip showing the exact values of a data point is displayed when clicking on the data point. The time stamp and the name of corresponding channel are also shown. |
Default Display Width | This time specifies the standard width of the associated chart. This value determines the period between the displayed minimum and maximum values. |
Master Chart | In the drop-down list that is available here, a chart that is part of the current configuration can be selected and designated as master chart. All actions that are executed in the master chart are also automatically executed in this chart. Only the Overview Chart can be shown in the toolbar. |
Time Bar | Specifies whether the time bar (information bar with time values) is displayed in the chart. |
Tool Bar | Specifies whether the toolbar is displayed in the chart. |

ForeColor | Specifies the color of the axis labels and grids of the overview. |

Settings
Active Monospace | When enabled, all text uses a monospace font where each character occupies the same horizontal width. This ensures that digits in vertical columns align perfectly (e.g., units, tens, hundreds), making it easier to spot value changes and compare magnitudes across rows. |
Show Colored Dot | When enabled, displays a small colored dot indicator next to each channel row. The dot color typically corresponds to the channel's assigned color, providing quick visual identification of channels in large configurations. |
Show Colored Text | When enabled, the value text itself is rendered in the channel's assigned color instead of the default foreground color. This helps distinguish between different channels when viewing multiple values. |
Use Scientific Notation | When enabled, large or small numerical values are displayed using scientific notation (e.g., 1.23e+06 instead of 1230000). This is useful for channels with values that span many orders of magnitude, keeping the display compact and readable. |
