The display range in Seeq Workbench refers to the time over which signals and conditions are trended. It is the top of the two time ranges users can adjust inside Seeq Workbench.
Pan and Zoom
With your mouse over the time axis labels (4:00 pm, 6 pm, 8 pm, etc in the screenshot to the right) your mouse will change to a horizontal double arrow . When this icon is displayed you can zoom in or out by scrolling your mouse wheel or you can pan the trend by clicking and dragging left or right.
Entering Time Values in Fields
The start, end, and duration fields can be edited directly by clicking on the label (10/22/2018 3:09 PM CDT / 1 day / 10/23/2018 3:09 PM CDT in the screenshot to the right). To change any of these fields just type in a new date and press enter. You can also enter partial dates and times as adjustments. For example, if you want to change the start date from 11/14/2017 10:03am to 9:00 am in the example to the right you only have to type, "9:00am," and press enter and the time selection box will keep the day constant. Similarly, you can type only, "11/15," and it will hold the time constant.
