1

Scale to min/max value

Dataset re-scaled between min and max value input by the user.

0, 1

Log (base 10), Set floor

Takes log10 of the dataset. Displays user input number of decades below the max. The number of decades MUST be negative.

-6

Show floor

Fill in unplotted pixels at the floor value of the log10 scaling.  If there are no unplotted pixels, then this command has no effect.

Unchecked

Normalized db (decibels)

Normalize data to unity (1) then take 10*log10 of the data.

Not selected
