Area Settings panel fields and controls
Field or control Description
Source Lists the available source signals for which to create an area. The default value is the signal
source of the selected area.
Shape Lists the current shape type, and also lets you change the current shape to a specified shape.
Changing a shape defines the minimum rectangle that includes all vertices of the current area,
and then does a best-fit approach to create the specified shape.
If you made changes to a default shaped area that results in an area that no longer meets the
default shape definition, that area is listed as a Custom shape in the menu.
Waveform Must Be Sets the logic condition for how the area logic equation interprets when a waveform intersects
an area.
In (✓): A waveform must intersect this area for the area logic to be true.
Out (X): A waveform must not intersect this area for the area logic to be true.
Don't Care (?): Don't care if a waveform intersects the area. This setting lets you ignore an
area during visual trigger development, instead of having to delete and recreate areas.
Height Sets the area height, in amplitude units, between the topmost vertex and the bottommost
vertex.
