This tutorial covers the new features and known issues in PicoScope 6.5.4.0 beta, giving you a heads-up on what to expect before these changes roll into a release version.

New features covered include:

• Check for Updates under the Help menu
• Company logo support in print preferences
• RPM readout toggle option
• Vertical zoom tooltip
• Ruler locking for paired ruler movement
• Notes auto-display on file open
• Animated GIF export directly from within PicoScope
• Alarms now functional in streaming mode
• UI layout changes (recent files, properties panel, buffer navigation buttons)

The tutorial also takes a deep dive into post-capture filtering, covering how to apply, adjust, and remove filter on saved waveform files. This includes important distinctions in behavior depending on scope model (3000 vs. 4000 series), capture mode (block vs. streaming), and software version used to create the file, along with practical workarounds for each scenario.

Known beta issues are also addressed, including the waveform buffer limit reduction, missing rapid trigger on 4000 series, inability to open persistence mode files, and inconsistent animated GIF behavior.
