Use Floating Statistics for Faster Setup

The on-screen statistics feature in 4D's 4Sight Analysis Software allows you to display statistics on Contour Plots, in the Floating Live Video window, and in the QC Measurement window, where system and setup repeatability can be verified.

On-screen statistics are useful when you need to be able to see results from a distance, as when aligning components in long-standoff measurements. The immediate feedback is also useful when aligning an optical system in a measurement tower, when working with a Digital Radius Slide, or when light levels or safety equipment make it difficult to see small screen print.

To display on-screen statistics, right-click on a Contour Plot, Floating Live Video window or QC Measurement window, choose Select Statistics then choose the statistics that you wish to display.

You can set the font and size of the statistics by right clicking on the various plots and selecting Select Statistics Font.

For more on on-screen statistics view our On-Screen Statistics in 4Sight Software application note.
