The history table view holds equivalent data to the history graphics view. The graphics configuration settings of the graphics view determine the row types and contents in the history table. So this view is intended for a more detailed view of the same data as in the history graphics view. For example, if you make a curve visible in the graphics view and select a curve type like 'standard deviation' for it, the table view will show the exact values for this specific setting. Hint: Make this tab visible by activating the history in the settings.
The context menu of the table area is providing analysis matching opportunities.
