Showing and Hiding Active View Objects

The Active View Visibility dialog box lets you control the visibility of various objects that appear on reports. Tabs in the dialog box list these objects by type, such as: Traces, Notes, Legends, and Color Keys.

Follow this procedure to toggle the display of objects in a report.

  1. On the View menu or on the menu bar, click Active View Visibility. The Active View Visibility dialog box appears.
  2. Select the tab for the object type to show or hide.

    By default, objects on a tab are listed by name in alphabetical order. Click the Name bar above the Name field to invert the order. For reports with large numbers of objects, you can resize the dialog box for easier selection.

  3. On the desired tab, select the Visibility check box for objects you want to show in the active view window. Clear the box to hide objects.

    Click the Visibility bar above the check box field to toggle the visibility of all objects in the list.

    You can also use the Name text box to type in an object name, as well as control visibility for the named object. Click Show and Hide.

  4. When finished making changes, click Done to close the dialog box.
