The scanner tab in the variable view shows the minimum and maximum values of angle and height of the current clip shown in the scanner.

Zooming

Zooming can be done by pressing the left mouse button and dragging a box in the scanner window even if the scanner is still running.

Halt

The scanner stops immediately if the scanner window is resized or if parameters like grid size, circle size or the precision of the model is changed. It can be restarted by selecting run menu item in the run menu.

Colors

The color of the maximum value of the displayed observable is black. The scan image becomes brighter if the maximum value increases during the scan.
