Looking for a way to alter VT function

MarkSummers

I am working in IC5.4.1, with spectre 7.2.  I am running multiple transient analysis's.  I want to be able to access the results for these separate analysis.  I can use the results browser and plot this way.  I can also use the getData function in the calculator.  If possible what I would like is to be able to use the VT function to select nodes in the schematic, but then plot the outputs for a particular transient analysis.  Right now it plots the first one it sees.  Is there anyway to do this.  I can't redefine the VT skill function directly, so I would need to do something else.

Any ideas are appreciated.

     Found a simple way to do this.  Use the DATA function in RF mode of AWD or waveScan calculator.  For AWD you can also redefine a function key so you don't need to switch back and forth.   It is done as follows

     procedure(f1()
    _dwtCaliDataObjectCB( 'DATA )
    )
    Then load f1.il

    This brings up a list of results that you can chose from.  It works quite well for me.
