simultaneous simulation of extracted and schematic views?

How can one perform simultaneous simulation of extracted and schematic views for comparison?

I've setup a config file see below and this works fine to simulate an extracted view.

However if I want to compare with no extraction I have to change all the views to schematic.

This is not so good if I want to subtract the two in say calculator.

I there a way to simulate the two views at the same time so one can say show the difference in the wave viewer  ViVA or something similar?

    In ADE Assembler, move your mouse over the Global Variables heading in the Data View assistant, and then use Right Mouse->Add Config Sweep. Then you can create a variable for a particular cell (e.g. OTA diffN) and choose to sweep the view between av_extracted and schematic. If you want to switch all four views that you've listed in the config at once, create four config sweep variables, set them all to sweep between schematic and av_extracted, and then select the four global variables and use Right Mouse->Group as Parametric Set.
