Qt family plot names are aweful

markbeck

 I'm currently using IC6.1.5.500.1

I'm finding that the new Qt plotter isn't displaying useful names on family plots.

e.g.
I have a simulation where I've done a ParamSweep. Then I probe a particular voltage.

v_in = getData("/in<1>") - getData("/in<0>")


if I issue the command plot(v_in), I expect to see in the plotter a family waveform with the family named: v_in


However, I find that it has a name like:

(getData("/in<1>" ?resultsDir "/some/really/long/path" ?result "tran") - getData("in<0>" ?resultsDir "/some/really/long/path" ?result "tran"))


Is there a skill method to force what name is used by the plotter for family waveforms?

    I created two service requests: 

    42425200 - plot(wfm ?expr list("name")) fails in 6.1.5

    42425218 - plotter doesn't honor assigned names for familes

     

    The 2nd one relates to the fact that the plott doesn't seem to honor the names assigned to a family's waveform children. It just uses the family name across all plots.
