Description

In WaveformView, I like to use the "w" button to switch between waveforms and templates. But these two data have a different temporal offset which make them hard to compare. The mean waveforms view seems to be aligned to the peak, whereas the template view has the peak at a negative time-value. Is there a way to make them line up?

Research direction

Start in WaveformView by tracing the "w" button that switches between waveforms and templates. Compare how each view calculates its temporal offset and verify the peak positions. Done means the template and mean waveform views line up when switching between them.
