probe net colors stuck

linbo

 Hello All,

 I've got a strange situation where the probe net colors are stuck on one color (schematic side) in regular editting mode, i.e. not XL.  Color is always Y0 and never cycles thru different colors.

I've tried setting these two env vars:

envSetVal("graphic" "probeCycleBool" 'boolean t)
envSetVal("layoutXL" "probeCycleHilite" 'boolean t)

but they make no difference in the schematic.  

I've looked at ALL the env vars that have either probe or cycle in their names.  There are two more with these settings:

schematic   probeHiliteLppString  string  "y0 drawing"

schematic   probeHiliteLppList  string  "y0 drawing y1 drawing y2 drawing y3 drawing y4 drawing y5 drawing y6 drawing y7 drawing y8 drawing y9 drawing"

 

Does anyone have a clue as to how to get my schematic probe colors to cycle thru the different colors?

 

Thanks,

--lin
