<li><b>Vertical</b> and <b>Horizontal Lines</b>: light-colored rectilinear lines drawn on the spectrum to help judge energies of spectrum features.

<li><b>Show Energy Slider</b>: Selecting this option will show a smaller version of the spectrum that allows positioning or resizing a box to define what energy range is shown on the primary spectrum. <b>InterSpec</b> remembers if you want this chart shown or not.

<li><b>Show Y-Axis Scalers</b>: Selecting this option will show some slider bars to the right of the screen to allow re-scaling the background or secondary spectrum, relative to the foreground spectrum. This can be useful comparing spectra of sources with different intensities, or from different detectors. The scale bars are only shown if there is a background and/or secondary spectrum. <b>InterSpec</b> remembers if you want these scalers shown or not.

<li><b>Compact X-axis</b>: Selecting this option repositions the &quot;Energy (keV)&quot; label on the spectrum to take up less vertical space. Useful for smaller screens.

<li><b>Background Subtract</b>: makes it so the displayed foreground and secondary spectra have the background subtracted from them.

This can occasionally be useful for highlighting small features above background to non-specialists.
4858
However, it is highly recomended to not generally use background subtraction as it strictly reduces information available to your eyes,

and can often times introduce non-physical artifacts to the spectrum.
