[Solved] Cannot Direct Plot PAC Current (Even though it is saved in outputs!)

Hi,

I cannot direct plot the output the drain current of a transistor in my PAC analysis. This is while I can plot the voltage of the same node, and I have added the corresponding node as output and selected the save option.

I get the "Error: ...... is not a kept output" error.

Best,
Mahdi

    Mahdi,

    Set useprobes to yes on the Outputs→Save All forum:

    You should also think about moving to ADE Explorer (you're using ADE L) since ADE L is obsolete. That won't address this issue, but I just noticed that you're using ADE L and thought I should point it out.
