ADE-L progress bar during ac, noise or stb analyses disturbs cadence environment. How to switch it off?

Hello,

I have problem that ADE L blocks whole cadence environment during ac, noise or stb analyses! During the transient simulation everything is just fine.

During ac simulation, mouse pointer shows the "busy" status: sandy glass symbol and it disturbs any further work with virtuoso, especially if the simulation takes long time!

It could be that maybe something is wrong with the progress bar, because the progress bar status doesn't correspondent  with the actual simulation (only ac, noise or stb). It predicts the time wrong and starts many times during the same analyses from the 0%. It is interesting that this "blocking" is let free in that moment when progress bar for ac analyses reaches 100%, even if ac was  finished already earlier!

Does anybody knows any way how to switch off the progress bar in ADE L? I actually don't need it, because the log file is just enough and has more information as the "nasty" progress bar.

Please can anyone help me. I use already the newest IC615 (Dez. 2012) release, but this effect appears in the earlier releases. Simulation runs with spectre.

 

Best Regards

 

Dalibor.

    Dalibor,

    I don't know of a way to turn it off, but it really should not behave this way - I've never seen that. So please contact customer support.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
