command "sevRun" or "sevRunEngine"

 Hi,

    i know that if you start analogArtist from schematic composer, the current schematic will be loaded as the current design in analogArtist, and I noticed that the analog-Artist use the command "sevRun" or "serRunEngine" to start a simulation,  and i am trying my own simulation method, like the "paramAnalysis", but  i found that when i put the sevRunEngine in my own procedure, it always prompts that "Need to select design before issuing this command" in CIW, and then i used the command "sevChooseDesign()", but this can't work well either. so here i want to make sure two points:

 1,  how to apply sevRun or sevRunEngine correctly, what's the necessary condition, such as a design?

 2,  for one thousand(this is a random value which depend on the input matrix) times parameter simulation, especially for only one parameter, what is the best way? i intend to use a loop in skill function "myOwnSim()", and in this function, i can calculate some equations. i think this way is more convenient than paramAnalysis

 welcome to any discussions,

Regards,

zfeng

     Hi,

      in fact, i want simulate my session with different design value parameter, such as the "light" , i have a value matrix for this "light" parameter ,and then i want to apply each value in the matrix to the "light", so for each value in the matrix, i need to simulate my design one time, so i intend to do this in the following procedure

    procedure(zfParamAnalysis()
    for(rowNumbers 0 rows ; rows is determined by input signal

       for(columNumbers 0 colums ; colums is determined by input signal

          light=lightmatrix[rowNumbers][columNnumbers] ; we change design variable value here, don't mind this wrong syntax

          isession=asiGetCurrentSession() ;  in the following lines, i want to start the simulation, like pushing the run button 

    sevNetlistAndRun('isession)
      )
     )
    );end procedure

    the zfParamAnalysis() function will be called when pushing the user menu (zfSim) in analogArtist window. because i want to start the simulation directly by pushing zfSim, so i prefer this way. about the script, we are all sure that it can work, but a little complicate. 

    i am not clear about this sentence "That suggests you are trying to run with ADE simulation invocation functions without ADE actually being set up", i can run the simulation by push the button "run" in the current session. i think i have set up my ADE, could you please explain it again.

    Regards,
