wvtool(winname(n))
wvtool(winname1(n),winname2(n),...winnamem(n))
wvtool(w)
h = wvtool(...)
wvtool(winname(n)) opens the Window Visualization Tool (WVTool) with the time and frequency domain plots of the n-length window specified in winname, which can be any Signal Processing Toolbox window. For a list of valid window names, see the window function. In the wvtool command, do not precede the window name with @.
wvtool(winname1(n),winname2(n),...winnamem(n)) opens WVTool with a time-domain plot and a frequency-domain plot that contain all the windows specified in winname1,...winnamem. The plots are shown on the same axes so that window characteristics can be compared and contrasted easily. WVTool is useful for displaying, annotating, and printing window responses.
wvtool(w) launches the Window Visualization Tool with sigwin object w.
h = wvtool(...) returns the Handle Graphics figure handle h.
Note A related tool, wintool, is available for designing and analyzing windows. |

Note If you launch WVTool from FDATool, an Add/Replace icon, which controls how new windows are added from FDATool, appears on the toolbar. |
In addition to the usual menus items, wvtool contains these wvtool-specific menu commands:
File menu:
Export — Exports the displayed plot(s) to a graphic file.
Edit menu:
Copy figure — Copies the displayed plot(s) to the clipboard (available only on Windows platforms).
Copy options — Displays the Preferences dialog box (available only on Windows platforms).
Figure, Axes, and Current Object Properties — Displays the Property Editor.
View menu:
Time domain — Check to show the time domain plot.
Frequency domain — Check to show the frequency domain plot.

Legend — Toggles the window name legend on and off. This option is also available with the Legend toolbar button.
Analysis Parameters — Controls the response plot parameters, including number of points, range, x- and y-axis units, sampling frequency, and normalized magnitude.
You can also access the Analysis Parameters by right-clicking the x-axis label of a plot in the Window Viewer panel.
Insert menu:
You use the Insert menu to add labels, titles, arrows, lines, text, and axes to your plots.
Tools menu:
Edit Plot — Turns on plot editing mode
Zoom In — Zooms in along both x- and y-axes.
Zoom X — Zooms in along the x-axis only. Drag the mouse in the x direction to select the zoom area.
Zoom Y — Zooms in along the y-axis only. Drag the mouse in the y direction to select the zoom area.
Full View — Returns to full view.
