Documentation error for awvPlotWaveform function in Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL SKILL Reference manual

I don't know how to inform Cadence about an error in their documentation, so I just thought I'd mention that there is a typo in the Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL SKILL Reference manual (Product Version IC6.1.7 Feburary 2017) regarding the awvPlotWaveform function on page 129.

It describes details for the argument "?showSymbol" but it should really be "?showSymbols"

    The best way to do it is to open a case with Cadence customer support, and the assigned AE will verify if the latest version of document also has the bug and can open a CCR on your behalf if needed. You can then monitor the status of the CCR through your account.

    Saloni's absolutely right, but I pinged the tech pubs team (as it's just a single character fix) and they're going to correct it. Saves everyone (you, support and R&D) a bunch of admin work. In general though a case (I think you can use feedback from the manual on support.cadence.com to do it too, which is also a fairly easy solution).

    In fact in the time it's taken me to write that first sentence, I've just heard that they've already fixed it ;-) . It should be in the IC617/ICADV123 ISR20 hotfix.

    Regards,

    Andrew
