ADE L plotting error: vector::_M_range_check

ZoltanT

I face annoyingly often the problem that ADE does not plot any results, while CIW reports the error "The wsReloadCommand command generated an exception vector::_M_range_check.". The problem is circumvented by closing and reopening ADE after which the waveforms are plotted.

I have not found this error message in the knowledgebase or in the forum, so probably it is related somehow to my setup. I would like to avoid closing and reopening the ADE if there is any other way. I would be glad for any help or advice about the background of this error. I suspect that an invalid vector index is used, but I am clueless about what specific setting could invoke such an error in my side.

Current tool versions:  MMSIM: 19.10.063 & ICADV: 12.30.721.

    This seems to be an issue with "Refresh" mode plotting in ADE, which has been superseded by plotting templates in IC618/ICADVM18.1. I would suggest you try moving to that instead (I don't think there's any fix to the specific issue you're seeing, which I only found one report of) - the plotting templates approach is definitely superior to the old refresh approach.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
