Cadence 6.1.5 ADE question

engine2011

Hello,

 I meet a problem with ADE in Cadence 6.1.5. That is, I cann't see the 'main form' entry in the 'Direct plot'. What I have is 'plot outputs' but it's always grey. It makes me cannot see the SP, GA, NF and other RF circuit specs directly as before in 6.1.3 cadence.

 Is there anybody know what's the problem?

 Thanks!

EF

    Maybe you have some obsolete menus files providing customization for an earlier release, and as such these have stopped the Direct Plot main form menu from appearing?

    Try doing (at the UNIX prompt, with the same setup environment you're using):

    cdswhich menus

    If it finds something, maybe you have an old spectre.menus or simui.menus file within this directory. If so, try moving the menus directory aside (or see if there's a UNIX env var which is causing that to be found via the "setup.loc" or Cadence Search File mechanism and unset it), and see if that fixes your problem.

    Otherwise you may need to contact Customer Support.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
