Adding menu entries to ADE L window

ChrisEAS

While migrating some SKILL code from Cadence 5 to Cadence 6 I'm encountering problems with adding menu entries. On Cadence 5, I was able to add a menu entry to the Analog Artist window by using it's name "analogArtist-schematic":

 deRegUserTriggers("analogArtist-schematic" ... )

However, in Cadence 6 this name seems not to correspond to the ADE L window anymore. Which is the preffered way of including menu entries into ADE L within Cadence 6?

Cheers, Chris

  • Chris, 

    You potentially could use the

    asimenv.startup sessInitTrigFunc  string  ""

    .cdsenv setting, but again, that can only be a single function.

    There's a long-standing request for a trigger-based mechanism to do this - it can be done right now, but uses private functions (although that approach won't work with ADE XL).

    Best to contact customer support over this to come up with a more extensible way of doing this.

    Andrew.
