Transient stop time variable

Hi,

Is there a variable that I can use in expressions for the transient stop time?

    You either could set the stop time of the transient to be a variable, set that variable in ADE, and then use VAR("STOPTIME") (or whatever you called it in your expressions), or you could use:

    ymax(xval(VT("/someNode")))

    (someNode being some signal you're saving). The xval function returns the x-axis vs the x-axis of a signal, and ymax finds the maximum. Or cleaner is probably:

    lastVal(VT("/someNode"))
