Expanding Signal Tap Waveforms

I am using Signal Tap in Quartus II 12.1. I am viewing various signals by right clicking on the signal and selecting Bus Display Format -> Signed Line Chart. While this provides a nice waveform display, I cannot seem to find a way to expand this in vertical scale. Many of the waveforms are scaled so small as to be unusable. I have been getting around this by using the right click -> Create Signal Tap List File and then importing the data into Excel and graphing it there. Is there any way to do this within Signal Tap itself or am I doomed to use this cumbersome method to achieve my goal? What am I missing here?

Hi, 

This is a problem in Signal Tap. One way to get a better wave form is to go OPTIONS=>VIEW=>INTERLINE SPACING. This will increase the wave form a litle bit. 

Good luck!
