Display of the test chart

This view mode shows you the currently loaded test chart file and its patches. The number of patches in the palette depends of the type of test chart/control element.

The color patches are reproduced as precisely as possible on the monitor (depending on the color depth set for the monitor and the monitor calibration).

Field, Ref [%], Ref. [Lab], Ref. [XYZ], Spectrum, Density

The following information and reference values display beside the graphic when you move the mouse pointer to a patch or enable the patch with a click (the patch is highlighted by a red-and-white frame):

·"No." = patch number, e.g. "205"

·"x" = column number, e.g. "18"

·"y" = row number, e.g. "14"

"Ref. [Lab]": Displays the Lab values for the current patch.

"Ref. [XYZ]": Displays the XYZ values for the current patch.
