You can control the waveform display using:

  • Resizing handles between the Name, Value, and waveform columns of the wave window
  • Scroll combinations with the mouse wheel
  • Zoom feature buttons in the Wave window sidebar
  • Zoom combinations with the mouse wheel
  • Vivado IDE Y-Axis zoom gestures
  • Vivado simulation X-Axis zoom gestures. See the Vivado Design Suite User Guide: Using the Vivado IDE (UG893) for more information about using the mouse to pan and zoom.
    Note: Unlike other Vivado Design Suite graphic windows, zooming in a Wave window affects only the X (time) axis, not the Y axis. The Zoom Range X gesture, which lets you select a time range to zoom into, replaces the Zoom to Area gesture.
    Tip: Saving a WCFG file records wave window settings in addition to wave objects and markers. Wave window settings include name and value column widths, zoom level, scroll position, expansion state of groups and buses, and position of the main cursor.
