What is the Assembler equivalent of loading save output state in ADEXL?

With ADEXL if I had multiple testbenches in an ADEXL view and I wanted to replicate the complete output state (save all options + output expressions + nets/currents to save) I could just save an output state then load state with only "output state" checked to the other testbenches.

Now with Assembler to attempt to do the same thing I find I have to descend into the testbench's Explorer view, set up the output expressions I want to save and nets/currents I want to save, and setup the global save all options, then save the outputs as a .csv file. Then I need to descend into each Explorer view, delete the old expressions and saved nets/currents, load the .csv file, then click on the outputs tab to set the save all options. This is >> 10X more time consuming than the way I was doing this in ADEXL.

Is there an easier way to do this in Assembler? Is there an Assembler equivalent to just saving the state in one testbench and loading the output portion of the state to multiple testbenches?

Thank you,

Bill,

Please contact customer support. One way to do this is to save a copy of the maestro view from a test and save just the outputs information. Then you can import the same info into each test - but you still need to do this from the Explorer level for each test (the import from the Assembler level wouldn't do what you want). I think it would be worth discussing this in a bit more detail and getting an enhancement request in (of course, there might be an easier approach that I've not thought of that having a bit more time through support might help uncover).

Regards,

Andrew

Thank you for the suggestion Andrew (and your many great pieces of skill code over the years too BTW!). I will make a request to customer support.

Have you already taken a look at the Multi-Test Editor ( https://support.cadence.com/apex/techpubDocViewerPage?path=assembler/assemblerIC6.1.8/asmTests.html#pgfId-1069858 )?

Hi Frank,

Thank you for the suggestion. However, I don't see Outputs in any of the MTE fields. Maybe I'll add that as a suggestion for request to Cadence when I file the customer support request as Andrew's suggestion.

Thank you!
