On some scopes you have gating: a function like cursors, where you use it to select part of the waveform that is of interest for you and then tell it to do measurements only from that area.
Some scopes (some from R&S, Keysight etc) use zoom function for that functionality.
Older and new lecroy scopes does have it too.
When you call up the measure functions, there is a possibility to change the
measuring gate.
By default it´s the whole screen in divisions, now you can select start and end and inbetween the measure will be taken.
But on the elder lecroys (waverunner lt, 93xx) you have the function "tracking", this means once you determined the measure gate, you could move it through the the screen and what´s inbetween will be measured - Very nice and comfortable.
But on newer models starting with windows as OS, you don´t have the tracking function anymore.
Lecroy support tells me to use the zoom function instead.
Yes it will work, but it´s awful to use in comparison to the "old" solution.
Rigol and thank god siglent too, using the trackable measure gate function.
