I'm aware, but I'd like a faster persistence option. 1s is too long for some purposes.

Then you have to get another scope. Maybe you can still return it?

This is a wanted features topic, but i doubt that wishes will get heard. Also there is not much resosurces left on that scope, that more features could be implemented, i heard.

Seems to me like 0.1s is getting very close to the persistence of your vision. Would you expect a noticeable difference between such a short new setting and just turning persistence off?

Scope is running 16ms persistence by design. By virtue of 60 frames per second refresh rate.

A far cry from 100ms, which would be noticeable. Or any other short amount of persistence below the 1s option.

Again, this is almost entirely for aesthetics. For example, oscilloscope art on a digital scope benefits from a small amount of persistence to mimic CRTs, but 1s ruins the visual. This would not be a feature that benefits any scientific measurements. However, I imagine it would be incredibly simple to add another time option in an already existing feature. And not to make it about comparisons because I am a massive fan of my SDS800, but the DHO800 offers custom persistence from 0.1s-10s, so it is a comparable feature to offer.
