Wavelet Toolbox

Using the Mouse

The Wavelet Toolbox uses three types of mouse control.

Left Mouse Button	Middle Mouse Button	Right Mouse Button
Make selections Activate controls	Display cross-hairs to show position-dependent information	Translate plots up and down, and left and right

Note    The functionality of the Middle Mouse Button and the Right Mouse Button can be inverted depending on the platform.

Making Selections and Activating Controls

Most of your work with the Wavelet Toolbox graphical tools involves making selections and activating controls. You do this using the left (or only) mouse button.

Translating Plots

By holding down the right mouse button (or its equivalent on a one- or two-button mouse), you can move the mouse to draw a rectangle in either a horizontal or vertical orientation. Releasing the middle mouse button then causes the plot to shift horizontally (or vertically) by an amount proportional to the width (or height) of the rectangle.

Displaying Position-Dependent Information

When you hold down the middle mouse button (or its equivalent on a one- or two-button mouse), a cross-hair cursor appears over the graph or plot. Position-dependent information also appears in the Info box located at the bottom center of the tool. The type of information that appears depends on what tool you are using and the plot in which your cursor is located. For example, the figure on the left shows the position in X and Y for a signal, the figure on the center shows the X position and the packet number for a discrete wavelet packet analysis, and the figure on the right shows the X position and the percentage of energy present in the detail level for a one-dimensional discrete wavelet analysis.
