Workflow

A typical scan proceeds as follows:

  1. Load the picture/plot you want to scan.
  2. Set the 4 markers, 2 on the x and 2 on y axis and tell xyscan about their position. This will allow xyscan to perform the necessary transformation from local into plot coordinates.
  3. Set axis scaling (linear or logarithmic) and define if and how you want to scan error bars.
  4. Scan the data points.
  5. Save or print your scan results.
