Master timeline

The master timeline shows every stream as a track on one time axis. The red playhead is the master cursor shared by every view.

Timeline toolbar#

ControlAction
− / +Zoom out / in around the cursor (− / +).
FitShow the whole session (F).
FollowAuto-scroll with the playhead during playback.
Sel→LoopLoop the selected range.
Clear selRemove the selection.
Selection readoutStart – end and duration of the selection.
Hover readoutStream name, time and value under the pointer (or Not recorded).
GestureAction
Click a trackMove the cursor there (snaps to nearby events).
Click an event markJump exactly to that event.
Mouse wheelZoom around the pointer.
Horizontal wheel, or Shift/Alt + wheelPan.
Drag the time rulerPan. Click the ruler to seek.
Shift-drag on a trackSelect a time range.

The selection (blue band) is used by range statistics, correlation, Fingerprint, Histogram, exports (“Selected range only”), compositions and RF baselines.

Tracks#

Each track has a header and a content lane. The header shows the stream name, its class badge and, when the track is tall enough, the controls and units.

ControlAction
▾ / ▸ nameClick to collapse / expand the track and select the stream.
SSolo — show only soloed tracks.
HHide — re-show it from the Streams panel checkbox.
∿ / ≋Audio tracks: switch between waveform and spectrogram.
⚠ NNumber of data-quality warnings for the stream.
Bottom edgeDrag to resize the track height.
Min / max labelsThe visible value range of numeric traces.

Track types#

  • Numeric telemetry and audio — level-of-detail traces (min/max envelopes when zoomed out). Step plots for backlight and display-stimulus streams. Gaps are drawn as breaks, never joined.
  • Events — a raster of event marks; hover for time, kind and detail (detected events also show their algorithm).
  • Camera video — frame timing; use the Synchronization Loom for per-frame timing.
  • RF spectrum — every tuning window drawn at its own acquisition time, so the sweep staircase is visible. Open the RF workspace for values.
  • IQ — a raster of raw IQ snippets.

Annotations lane#

The Annotations (human) lane above the tracks shows your markers, notes and ranges. Click one to jump to it. See Annotations.
