The "Analysis view" can be launched from the raster toolbar by selecting "Raster layer" from the left drop-down button and "Analysis View" on the drop-down button on the right. Make sure that the name of the raster layer that you want to analyze is displayed as current layer in the text box.
With this functionality you can zoom in on the current raster layer with 3 different zoom levels:
You can change the relation between the zoom level of this floating window and the gvSIG view. This is done by right-clicking on the floating window and selecting one of the values that are shown in the drop-down menu that appears. The available options are x4, x8, x16, and x32. This means that the pixels in the floating window will be 4, 8, 16, or 32 times bigger than the original.
The floating window also shows the RGB values of the pixel on which the cursor is currently located. The text colour of the RGB values as well as the colour of the central cross (red by default) can be changed by right-clicking on the floating window and choosing the option from the drop-down menu.
Keep in mind that, to see the effects in the floating window while moving the mouse over the view, the view must be active. If it is not active, just click on the view. When the cursor is outside the view, the content of the floating window appears black.
There can only be one Analysis view open at any time in gvSIG. Therefore, the button "Analysis View" is re-labelled as "Close Analysis View" when the Analysis view is already open, so that it can be closed before re-opening.
