-The program automatically found the highest negative and the highest positive peak within the interval.The mean amplitude is calculated over the whole interval. In this case, positive and negative amplitudes almost cancel out. The peak label is chosen on the latency that has the highest overall amplitude. By default, other channels' amplitudes are calculated at the latencies of the search channel's positive and negative peaks (to change this, un-check the check box "All Amplitudes at Same Latency" - then, the search will run independently for each channel).

 The area is the cumulative positive and negative amplitude over the whole interval, as indicated below.

 === Peak finding after setting a cursor ===
 The result of peak finding after setting a cursor (or using the mouse position) is shown below:
-[[File:PeakFinder3.png]]
+[[File:PeakFinder3.png|900px]]
 In this scenario, the first peak is found by checking which relative maximum or minimum is closest to the cursor position (or mouse position). This will become the main peak (here, it is the positive peak).

 Then, a search starts in both directions for a local minimum or maximum - in this scenario, the negative peak is searched for. Here, the next negative peak is to the right of the main peak:

 == Combine Conditions Peak Finder ==
 The Peak Finder in the Combine Conditions dialog runs in batch mode. Thus, all parameters need to be provided beforehand.
 It can output either peaks, mean amplitudes over the interval provided, or areas over the interval provided. Also, search channel, montage, baseline and filters need to be set by the user before running the batch mode.
