Based on the data type, the table automatically selects which columns are to be displayed. In the case of a spectrum, for example, the frequencies are also displayed.

The preview shows a demonstration table and not the actual data.

8.4.1. General properties

To access the Properties dialog box, press the left mouse button within the table area and select Properties from the context menu.

Instructions on selecting the data source are given in the section on "Selecting a data source".

8.4.2. Display

A table can very easily take up several pages of a report. A spectrum with 4096 points, for example, could output about 60 pages in a full-page table view. You can set the output to a maximum of number of lines or even to "Display just on first page of report" in the Table view.

Instead of the automatically determined physical measurement variable, you can select the "1st heading line with free text". The 2nd heading line is normally displayed with the physical unit, but this can also be assigned "free text" or the 2nd heading line can be left out completely by unclicking the check mark from "2nd heading line with".

You can also limit Columns to a certain number and hide the "Date / time" columns and, with spectra and time recording, the "Frequency / time offset" column, if they are not to be displayed.

8.4.3. Font and Border

"Font and Border" allows the following settings to be made

  • Font: Arial, Times New Roman, Courier New

  • Style: bold, italics

  • Font size

  • Font color

  • Divide header: Define the thick separating line between the table header (1st + 2nd rows) and the table.

  • Grid thickness: Define the thickness of the grid lines between the columns and rows

  • Border thickness: Set the thickness of the frame around the complete table.

8.4.4. Filter

Use the data filter to define the frequency range in spectra and the time offset range in time recordings that are to be displayed in the table.

The filter settings were already described in the section on "Settings".
