Maestro customization: Not to open schematic in tab, and two other issues

HoWei
HoWei over 6 years ago

There are some issues we face with maestro and its default settings and we are wondering if those can be customized using ".cdsenv" ot ".cdsinit":

1. A maestro view sometimes remains locked after I close the session (Session->Quit). I don’t know why this happens or how to prevent it. Moreover, I don’t know how to remove this lock unless I restart Cadence. Having a maestro view locked is a problem is because it doesn’t allow me to check in this view into SOS.

2. When I start Explorer I can select that I want to open the schematic in a separate window (and not in a tab). But after a while I see that Explorer has already connected a tab with the schematic despite my instruction not to do so. For example if I add a "signal" to the outputs - maestro opens the schematic in a tab, despite it is open already in an extra window.  Is it possible to customize the default settings and change the behavior ?

3. When I have highlighted just one output expression and point to the delete symbol, other expressions (usually at the bottom of my expressions list) sometimes vanish! I’ve never seen such buggy behavior from ADE-L. This is compounded by the fact that the maestro state has already been automatically saved and so I cannot go back! Any idea why this happens and how it can be fixed ?

We are using ic6.1.8.

    Please contact customer support over all of these. I'm not sure I've seen all of them, but some may be existing issues. Either way, none of them sound like desirable behaviour and so it's important to capture and uncover when they occur so that we can improve the software. I don't think they are all issues that are happening all the time (because we'd hear about them non-stop if they were).

    Andrew.
