- (unchecked) time as y-axis, distance as x-axis, (checked) time as x-axis, distance as y-axis;
- (checked) curve will be added and displayed in the overlay of original movie/stack to mark already analyzed region;
- ignore original image/stack calibration, i.e. don't add its calibration to the final kymograph image (width, height, vortex size and frame rate).
