Zooming And Panning The Roast Chart
Summary
The roast chart zooms. On a saved Batch and on the live chart in Roast Studio, pinch on a trackpad, or hold Ctrl (Cmd on a Mac) and scroll, to zoom in on time and temperature together around the pointer. Drag the plot to move around the roast. Reset zoom, in the top-left corner of the plot, brings the whole roast back. Zoom only changes how the Curve is drawn: nothing in the Batch is changed or saved, and the shared image always shows the whole roast.
Steps
- To zoom in, point at the part of the roast you want to see, then pinch on a trackpad, or hold Ctrl (Cmd on a Mac) and scroll. Scrolling without the key held scrolls the page, not the chart.
- Time and temperature zoom together by the same amount, so the Curve keeps its shape and the Rate of Rise scale follows. Minute marks stay on whole minutes and temperature ticks on round degrees.
- To move around, drag the plot along the roast or up and down the temperature range.
- To see the whole roast again, click Reset zoom in the top-left corner of the plot. The button only appears while the chart is zoomed, and goes away once the full view is back. If a customer says the chart is stuck zoomed, this button is the answer.
- While a roast is recording in Roast Studio, a zoomed view follows the live reading. If the customer has scrolled back to an earlier part of the roast, the view holds still and a Back to live button appears beside Reset zoom; clicking it rejoins the roast where it is now.
- Zoom does not change the roast. Nothing is saved when zooming, no reading is dropped, and the Batch is the same before and after. A click on the chart still opens the milestone menu; a drag only moves the view. Marking or moving a milestone, and showing or hiding a series, keep the zoom.
- Share chart always shows the whole roast, however far the chart was zoomed when the customer opened it.
- Zoom arrived in Rostoc 0.4.5. A customer on an older version has no zoom on the chart, so confirm they have updated first.
