Cuts may be applied to select the data to be displayed. They are grouped (InDet (6.4.1 Cuts for Inner Detector (InDet)), Calo (6.4.2 Cuts for Calorimeters (Calo)), MuonDet (6.4.3 Cuts for Muon Detector (MuonDet)), AOD (6.4.4 Cuts for Analysis Object Data (AOD)) and ATLAS (6.4.5 Cuts for whole Detector (ATLAS))) and are accessible via the Cuts tab of the parameter control section in the Control Window.
Cuts can be made on tracks, track associations, hits, calorimeter cells, TRT straws, angular regions.
Each cut can be switched on or off by clicking on the small check-box on the left hand side. The value of each cut is displayed in the white field and is modified by changing the value in the field, followed by pressing the Enter key on the keyboard.
Cuts which act on real numbers may select values either < or > the cut value. The selection of < or > is toggled by clicking on them with the left mouse button.
For cuts applied to integer values a left-click causes a pull down menu to appear where you may select according to the C/JAVA syntax: =, != (not equal), <, <=, > or >=.
Most cuts are applied to tracks.
If the track association of hits or calorimeter cells is known, they may be selected according to the tracks - with their cuts - they are associated to. See Hits By STr and Hits By Track.
