plotting results does not properly work

TommasoF
TommasoF 2 months ago

Hi all,

in IC618 sometimes the plotting "append" function was actually working as "replace", then one had to restart Virtuoso to get it fixed.

now with IC23.1 it happens very often. Append dos work as replace, so in order to append the results I need to pick "new subwin"

any idea to fix it ? moving to another IC version is not a an option, nor restarting virtuoso. Generally ViVa is also buggy..hopefully one day someone will finally fix this (I am talking about bugs that appear and disappear and cannot be reproduce)

thanks

    Leandro Silva - please contact customer support about this.

    I don't think it's fully resolved yet - again, the challenge is finding out precisely what causes it to break as it is notoriously difficult to reproduce. I expect that we could also provide the workaround script (I don't recall seeing that anywhere, but I'm sure if somebody was to search for it they could find it).

    Andrew
