Scaling Tab
X - Axis Scaling During Simulation
When a simulation is started the simulation end time is known. The simulator send the value
to the View Tool which displays the corresponding size of the X-axis. If you want to see a certain
part (percentage) of the complete X-axis select this option and enter the percentage.
When the channels will "hit against" the right graphic border during a simulation run, the
View Tool enlarges the X-axis and re-scales the channels.
Y - Axis Scaling During Simulation
The option adapts the y-axis during the simulation. When a channel get a value out of the visible
range the Y-axis are scaled by the specified percentage but at least so that all points of
all channels are visible.
Y - Axis Scaling at Simulation End
The option adapts the y-axis after the simulation. All channels are scaled so that all points of
all channels are visible. During the simulation no scaling appears.
