How to make wavescan respect result changes?

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hi,

If I have ocean save the result of a simulation from within CIW to a directory next to the standard "schematic" results in the ADE->results->select dialog I can easily jump back and forth between results and have AWD update the current waveform with results from that simulation result set. Jumping from single run to montecarlo to corner is no problem, AWD just updates the currently drawn waveforms with the data from the selected result set.

If I try to do the same with wavescan, there is no way to get wavescan to understand the change other than getting a new waveform window. The reload menu item does not make a change and resizing the window (a hidden trick) to redraw the waves with new data does also not work. I have to get a new window and then I have to select all the signals I want to see again. I personally stick to AWD but I have colleagues who "like" wavescan better and don't want to change.

Maybe this is actually a bug in wavescan that has to be reported?

    Hi, I also have the same problem. Wavescan continues to display the first simulated data. Reload doesn't seem to help. The only workaround that a have found is to use Results -> select in ADE. How to tell Wavescan to read the last simulated data? I also tried AWD and it works better, unfortunately it doesn't support the table generation where Wavescan does. Cheers, Christian
