			Therefore, '''most of the functionality is integrated in each physical element'''. For example: if you want to change trigger settings, simply click/tap the trigger indicator on the right of the screen. More general settings have been moved into the menu, which is hidden by default in order to free up as much as possible screen space for the graph.

			This '''main menu can be opened and closed by tapping on the LabNation logo''' in the bottom-left.
