How sources and components are treated in DC analysis?

Hi,

In DC analysis, capacitor is open and inductor is short. I would like to know what other things the DC analysis do (for example, how sources are treated,...). Could you tell me where can I find this? 

I tried search cdnshelp but the info is not there. It is an introduction about DC analysis.

    Thank you.

    I have just tested these waveforms in DC and transient analysis. The result confirms what you said. I also notice that the transient analysis does use DC voltage at all.

    These detailed knowledge I can't find anywhere (something like DC analysis use time-zero value if,...). I think I wouldn't believe in myself if I I don't read your post or read it from an official document!
