dbCreateEllipse

Kai1646

Hi all,
Is there a way to copy the behavior of Analog Design Environtment - Outputs -> To be saved?

I'm creating a skill program that highlights the selected nodes/pins using 'dbCreateEllipse'
but when I closed the schematic window It prompts "Saved Changes" dialog.
This means the schematic has been modified.

I use geopen on opening the schematic.
Also I have notice ADE use session. Is there already a thread about session without opening the ADE?

    ADE actually does it with a geMakeProbeWithLabel(), where the label is "O". This doesn't modify anything...

    For example:

    object=list("I7" "out")
    geMakeProbeWithLabel(?labelFontSize 0.25 ?labelColor '("y2" "drawing") ?object object ?probeType "terminal" ?window hiGetCurrentWindow() ?labelName "O" ?labelJust "centerCenter")

    This will probe the "out" pin of the I7 instance.

    You could also use asiSelectTerm - this is more to do with if you are selecting terminals to fill in a field in an ADE form.

    Not sure really sure what your last line is asking - if you explained the objective, maybe it would be clearer? You can run ADE simulations without an ADE UI by using OCEAN functions.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
