Virtuoso: Comment Out

itos

I have no hope this is possible but after years of struggle I still try it: Is it somehow possible to comment out parts of the schematic (such that marked parts still exist in the schematic and can later be uncommented but are not transfered to the netlist).


This would be THE SINGLE MOST USEFUL Virtuoso could implement.

It's such a pain to delete whole parts of schematics just to try something out and afterwards manually reinserting stuff again. If I'm the first person asking for this I am wondering how IC design people work. Even the first Fortran on punch cards had comments.

The same used to be true for Simulink - the latest releases are a huge relief when they FINALLY introduced "Comment out" and "Comment through".

    Wow, how cool! I really did not expect a solution (and indeed, it's pretty invisible). I'll try to get 6.17 installed first (using 6.16 right now) and if this doesn't work will try your #2, Andrew.
