How to plot a single wave in adexl

Ring Lewis

[Problem]

I run coners simulation in adexl, and i get results of  waves.normally, I get a single wave if i double click a wave icon of one corner simulation.

But, if i run "sweep variable + corner" (configure variable values in "data view -> global variables"), once i click a wave icon, all same waves in other corners  are also displayed, which is really slow.

Does anyone know how to plot a single wave in "variable sweep + coners" simulation.

[I tried]

double left click, or "right click -> plot" display all wave. "right click -> main from.." can plot a single wave, but seems to be  troublesome for expression wave. 

[Version]

IC6.1.7-64b-500.19

    I can't reproduce this (with the same version you're using). Single-click does nothing, but double click or Right Mouse->Plot plots the single point from that corner. Maybe it's something to do with the specific sweep/corners setup you have.

    I'd suggest trying with the latest IC6.1.8 hotfix (6.1.8.500.15), and ideally with ADE Assembler too, and if you can still reproduce it, contact customer support so that we can see the details of the conditions under which it occurs. I found a report of this back in IC6.1.5 but that was fixed nearly 10 years ago...

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Thank you Andrew, i got the reason:
    configure sweep variables as left, display a single wave, while for the right, plots of all points arise.

    I reproduced the problem in the version you're using, and then did some further experiments with other versions - it's fixed in IC6.1.8-64b.500.2. I didn't spot a workaround if you have the sweeps set up this way - the best is to move to a later sub-version (note, I did the experiments with ADE XL, and so you don't have to update to Assembler, even though you might want to consider it).

    Andrew.
