Back-annotation of the current flowing through a pin

Hello,

Is there a label (similar to cdsTerm("pin_name") for voltage) to view, on a symbol, the value of the current flowing through a pin?

Thank you

Aldo

    Yes, although I have only tried this for cases where I save a selected set of currents (saving everything is something I usually try to avoid due to storage). However, I guess it should be possible to annotate the selected currents that are saved? At least, this works if only selected voltages are saved. I am not, at the moment, fully aware of all files loaded at start-up of my CIW session, as it follows a standard setup. Is there anything that could "force" this behaviour in any way, and is there some way to force current annotations, ie. through CIW or a SKILL procedure?
