This icon will save the file you currently have on your waveform
screen. The file will be saves in *.wav format that is unique to the
wave composer.
The Save As... icon lets you save your waveform as a file. The
file will be saves in *.wav format that is unique to the wave composer.
It also can be saved as *.asc in ASCII format.
Use this icon to print your waveform screen on your default
printer. With this command you may print the active Waveform
Window. The standard printer dialog box will appear and will let you
select printer setup, or print the waveform page.
Click on this icon to start the autoline operation. You can exit the
autoline mode by clicking on this icon again, or by clicking on the right
mouse button. The Autoline command lets you draw straight-line
segments. To draw a line using this command click the left mouse
button at the start point. Click again at the next point and then click on
the right mouse button to terminate this operation.
The sketch mode is invoked using this icon. Click on this icon
again, or click your right mouse button to terminate the sketch mode.
The Sketch command lets you draw free-hand segments. To draw a
line using this command click and hold the left mouse button at the
start point. Release the mouse button when you want to stop and
then click on the right mouse button to terminate this operation.
Clicking on this icon will invoke the smooth function. The Smooth
command lets you smooth out rough transitions on your waveform.
This is done mathematically by multiplying waveform coordinates by
the non-linear portion of a cubic parabola.
The Smooth operation is done on segments of the waveform that are
bound by anchors. Anchor operation is described later in this chapter.
Place you anchors on the left and right of your waveform segment
and select the Smoot command. The waveform will change its shape
immediately to follow the mathematical pattern of a parabolic curve.
Note that small segments with fast transitions, when combined with
parabolic expressions have tendencies to generate even larger
transitions. Therefore, make sure you omit such sections of the
waveform when you use this operation.
