Map & Table Functions

Various functions are available for map and table editing from the context menu.

To access the context menu, right click on the view (e.g. a Map Grid).  

Alternatively, press the Context Menu key (to the right of Alt-Gr) whilst the view is focused.   Some keyboards do not have a context menu key, in which case you can use Shift-F10.

Common Functions

For Fuel Map specific function, see the Fuel Map Functions section.

View Grid / View Graph

Creates a new view window in the current tab for the same object (e.g. Fuel Map) with the alternative view type.

Properties

Displays/focuses the properties window for this object.  Properties will be automatically updated to reflect what you are looking at.  If the properties windows is hidden, then it will be shown.

Rename

Allows you to modify the title of the window.

Select All

Selects all sites in the focused object.

Select None

Clears the selection in the focused object.

Cut / Copy / Paste

Clipboard handling for the selected sites.  Clipboard data may also be pasted into applications such as Microsoft Excel® and Open Office Calc®.

State | Set State to ‘Calibrated’ & State | Set State to ‘Unchanged’

Adjusts the state of the sites to either ‘Calibrated’ or ‘Unchanged’.  To see state colours for a map or table, adjust the colour mode property using the properties window.

Lock Sites With Calibrated State

Locks sites that have the calibrated state from being modified.  

For example, if you has set the state of a number of sites to ‘calibrated’, select all sites in the map and then adjust them using the [ or ] keys, the calibrated sites will not be modified.

Interpolate

Performs a two dimensional linear interpolation between the corner values of the selection.

Interpolate Rows / Interpolate Columns

Performs a one dimensional linear interpolation across rows or columns in the selection.

Percent Change

Adjusts the selected sites by a percentage of the current value:

x = x + (x \* percentage / 100)

Negative percentages may be supplied to cause a reduction in the site values.

Absolute Change

Adjusts the selected sites by an absolute value:

x = x + value

Function

Allows a user defined function to be performed on the selected sites.  

The function can also be referred to as a script.  

Simple functions may be written much like a mathematical expression, so no expert knowledge of programming is required.

For example, to make a percentage change of sites in a map, you might write:

v * 0.1

If you click ‘Apply’, the function will be applied to the sites in the map.  If you want the function to only be applied to the selection, tick the “Apply to Selection” box.

For more details, see the Function Editor section.

Smooth

Smooth applies a linear phase low pass filter to the map or table.

Depth corresponds to the window size of the filter kernel (each site being a sample).  A Higher value will allow lower cutoff frequencies.

Smoothness corresponds to the cutoff frequency of the low pass filter.  Higher values represent a lower cutoff.

Fill

Fills the map between selected sites or sites with the ‘calibrated’ state (see the State | Set to ‘Calibrated’ context menu command).

For more information, see the Fill Function section.

Show Raw Values

Displays the values in the map or table as raw (unscaled) hexadecimal values.
