Ocean: Save waveforms to .png

Hi,

 

I have a quick question and would be very grateful for some help.

 

I have an ocean script testbench, which is creating various plots. At the end of the run, I wish to save the resulting waveforms. Currently, I have to manually go: 'File' -> 'Save as image' on the waveform window. Could somebody please inform me how to do this within ocean, i.e as a script so that I can automate this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

Regards

    Hi again,

     

    Following on from my previous post, I have actually found that all I have to do is drop the .cdsplotinit file into my home directory and that works fine in that I am no longer warned that the file cant be found and it loads the one in my home directory.

     

    The problem now is that although the printing to file appears to have taken place ... no warnings/errors, there is no resulting .png file.

     

    Anybody have any thoughts? Is there something specific required within the .cdsplotinit file to perform the plotting of the .png?

     

     

     

    Thanks in advance
