recreate netlist finish but not show netlist with ams

Hi,

Recently I got one issue about netlist. After I recreate netlist of one test in my bench, the new netlist doesn't appear. However, ciw says netlist has been finished can created. It seems I have to manually display the netlist. 

My test bench is built with ams simulator and EDA tools are

- ICADVM20.1-64b.500.30

- Spectre 21.1.0.664.isr16

- Xcelium 22.03-s001

I have also tried another test bench using pure spectre simulator. The netlist recreation function shows new netlist as expected. 

What is the reason and how to fix this? 

Thanks for your support.

    This is expected and intentional. Given that what is displayed isn't just the netlist (there's a big warning at the beginning to this effect) - it lists a copy of the netlist, the simulation control file and the TCL file for probes - it is not displayed all the time as it's often large and quite likely not going to be needed to be viewed in most cases. If you really want to view it, you need to explicitly ask to display the debugging netlist. 

    This is different than the behaviour with the spectre integration, but it is what it is and it's by design.
