Hot-Keys

The HOT-KEYs are not expected to replace a mouse, but rather, supplement it.  When analyzing lots of data, it can be useful to use the keyboard for say, ZOOMING and SCROLLING while using the mouse for cursor control.

T

Z

<,>

Ctrl+Drag Window

Holding the control key while dragging a window will temporarily turn off the docking prompts so a window can be positioned without docking.

Shift+Snap

Holding the shift key, while snapping a signal or the active marker to the next data change in the waveform view, will toggle the snap between Field/Frame modes (depending on the "Snap to Frames" environment setting). This option is only available when framing information is contained within the signal.
