Maestro - customizing default ouptut save options

Dear firebolt,

I think this might accomplish what you want firebolt. There is a troubleshooting article at URL:

that contains a set of SKILL statements at the end of it to include in your .csdinit file. The code contains a set of defaults you can either create and save or include the .cdsinit statements. The SKILL command of interest is

asiSetKeepOptionVal()

and is documented in the SKILL reference manual (part 1) at URL:

I hope this is what you were hoping to find!

Shawn,

That's not really the best way to set defaults for new views though - it's much simpler to do with cdsenv settings:

spectre.outputs save    string  "selected"
spectre.outputs primitivesInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs modelParamInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs subcktsInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs elementInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs assertsInfo boolean nil
spectre.outputs designParamValInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs outputParamInfo boolean t
spectre.outputs allcapInfo boolean nil
spectre.outputs extremesInfo boolean nil

You can set these to nil or t (for the "Info" analyses). This is the .cdsenv syntax, and for an entry in the .cdsinit it would be:

envSetVal("spectre.outputs" "elementInfo" 'boolean nil)

for example. Or:

envSetVal("spectre.outputs" "save" 'string  "selected")

Thanks Andrew & Shawn. Works for spectre simulator. Does it support for third-party simulator? I tried, its not working.

I would expect there would be similar cdsenv settings for a third-party simulator, but of course they will be specific to that simulator. You should ask the vendor/provider of that integration for details as to how to set the defaults in their integration (in general this should be controlled by cdsenv settings, but I can't tell you what they are called in an unnamed (or even a named) third-party integration).

Andrew

I will check with them. Thanks.
