The Multiple Horizontal Lines measurement object is used solely for the measurement of charts. You can use it to measure the horizontal distance between a reference line and one or more interactively determined points.
 Creating a chart
Your software has its own chart document. A chart can be saved, edited and also measured.
Use for example the Line Profile tool window to have the intensity profile along a line displayed on an image. Click the Export to Chart  button to export the line profile to a chart.
As soon as a chart has become active in the document group, the Measurement tool window changes its appearance. From then on, only the measurement functions that you can use for charts are available.
Measuring on charts
Click the Multiple Horizontal Lines  button. To begin with, define the vertical reference line on the chart. Then set the end points of your horizontal lines. The measurement results will be shown in the Measurement tool window. Finish the measurement by clicking your right mouse button.
The illustration shows the intensity profile of a sample that is made up of several layers. You can clearly recognize the different layers in the intensity profile. On the intensity profile, several horizontal lines have been measured. The distances are, in this process, always measured from a reference line.
Above you can see the corresponding image segment of the sample.
