Note: Constants, generics, and parameters are not viewable in the List or Wave windows.

The data in the item values pane is very similar to the Signals window, except that the values change dynamically whenever a cursor in the waveform pane is moved.

At the bottom of the waveform pane you can see a time line, tick marks, and a readout of each cursor's position. As you click and drag to move a cursor, the time value at the cursor location is updated at the bottom of the cursor.

You can resize the window panes by clicking on the bar between them and dragging the bar to a new location.

Waveform and signal-name formatting are easily changed via the Format menu. You can reuse any formatting changes you make by saving a Wave window format file, see "Adding items with a Wave window format file" .
