How to use calculator in ADE Explorer

SpiceMonkey

In the "Outputs" of ADE XL or  ADE L, I used to click "Open" to invoke calculator, then click "Get Expression"...

While in ADE Explorer, "open expression builder" looks like a simplified calculator, emm...do I have to get used to this way of building expreesion? is there a convinient way to use old calculator in Explorer? Thank you!

    Most people tend to get on better with the expression builder as an efficient way of building complex expressions - and it's pretty powerful. You might want to take a look at this Rapid Adoption Kit: Virtuoso ADE Explorer and Virtuoso ADE Assembler Expression Builder

    However, you can switch to having the calculator instead if you wish:

    envSetVal("maestro.gui" "useExpressionBuilder" 'boolean nil)

    You can also just change this on the fly by using Options->Cdsenv Editor in the CIW and searching for "expression" and then changing the flag interactively.

    Thank you Andrew. I found a option of  "send to calculator" in right-click menu. BTW, nice new profile photo
