Annotation Options
AugerScan lets you define several settings for your annotations. These
settings are defined in the Annotations tab of the View Options dialog box.
You can define the default tab settings for tabs that you use to format
annotations. These settings are global so they affect all annotations, including
tables.
You can also display the atomic concentrations of a survey in table format.
This table, an Atomic Concentration Table, is a special type of annotation and
can have characteristics defined specifically for it. You can:
- Define the line styles used to display data (click hereLine_Styles for more
information about line styles)
- Specify whether the Atomic Concentration Table is generated from a survey
(that is, displayed with the survey)
- Select a default heading for all Atomic Concentration Tables
- Choose whether atomic concentration values are displayed with markers in
addition to their display in an Atomic Concentration Table. Note that if you choose
not to generate an Atomic Concentration Table, the atomic concentrations are
displayed automatically with the markers in the graph. The only way to not include atomic concentrations with markers is to create an Atomic
Concentration Table and then not select “Display Concentration on Markers” in the Annotations tab of the View Options dialog box.
- Specify whether an XPS summary table (including peak height, area, FWHM, and
atomic concentration) is displayed with an XPS multiplex.
An Atomic Concentration Table will automatically be updated if the atomic
concentration is recalculated (either manually or automatically, such as when a
marker is added or removed). You can also delete the Table, but it will be
regenerated automatically if the atomic concentration is recalculated. Reverting to
raw data does not remove the Atomic Concentration Table; you must delete it
manually.
An XPS summary table will automatically be updated if any of the data is
recalculated. You can also delete the Table, but if will be regenerated
automatically if there is any change to the data.
A Note About Tables: If the columns in the tables are not displaying properly, you may want to
change the tab settings (as noted above), or the font used for the table
(double-click on the annotation to change the font).
To change the settings for annotations:
- Select the Options command from the View menu.
- Click on the Annotations tab.
- Change the settings as appropriate. Use the What’s This Help to get more information about the fields in the dialog box.
- Click on OK in the View Options dialog box to save the changes.
