The Optical Segment options enable you to split, remove, reset segments, and swap markers.
The Optical Segment options are displayed when the Timeline indicator is positioned over a segment as shown in the following figure.

The Optical Segment options are described in the following table.
| Optical Segment options | Description |
|---|---|
| Split Segment |
Split Segment cuts the current segment in two. Use Split Segment to remove part of a data segment that contains a spike, noise, or other results of partial occlusion. |
| Remove Segment |
Remove Segment removes the current segment from its marker. Use Remove Segment to label a segment to another marker. |
| Reset Segment |
Reset Segment resets the data segment to its original state. Use Reset Segment to set a segment to its original state after you have modified the segment using a Control Curve or performed other operations. If the original segment was split, it resets the modifications made to the current segment but it does not reassemble the segments. |
| Swap with Marker |
Swap with Marker swaps data from the currently selected marker to another marker. The swapping method is determined by the settings in the Insert menu in the Optical Options Label pane. See Eliminating Swapping. |
The Optical Segment options are also accessible when right-clicking a segment.
