Display Properties
The Vector Scope and Spectrum Scope blocks offer a similar collection of 
display property settings. These can be exposed in the parameter dialog box by 
selecting the 
Display properties check box. Many of the properties can be 
accessed under the 
Axes menu in the unzoomed scope view (when Compact 
display
 is deselected), or by right-clicking on the scope window.
The
 Show grid parameter toggles the background grid on and off. This option 
can also be set in the 
Axes menu of the scope window. 
When 
Persistence is selected, the window maintains successive displays. That 
is, the scope does not erase the display after each frame (or collection of 
frames), but overlays successive input frames in the scope display. This option 
can also be set in the 
Axes menu of the scope window. 
When 
Frame number is selected, the number of the current frame in the input 
sequence is displayed on the scope window, incrementing the count as each 
new input is received. Counting starts at 1 with the first input frame, and 
continues until the simulation stops.
When 
Channel legend is selected, a legend indicating the line color, style, and 
marker of each channel’s data is added. If the input signal is labeled, that label 
is displayed in the channel legend. If the input signal is not labeled, but comes 
from a Matrix Concatenation block with labeled inputs, those labels are 
displayed in the channel legend. Otherwise, each channel in the legend is 
labeled with the channel number (
CH 1, CH 2, etc.). Click and drag on the legend
