Tracking moves Cursor 1 and Cursor 2 in tandem. However, moving Cursor 2 does not move Cursor 1.

with waveform cursors in XY display mode such that the vertical line is not drawn, only the X.

Screen. In normal acquisition mode, changing the display format to XY when V Bar cursors are enabled,
changes the cursor type to Waveform.
