Save ADEXL output expressions in binary file?

Hello,

I have some expressions defined as ADEXL outputs, which I would like to export to a file for further post-processing.  However, due to the parametric sweeps and large number of data points, saving to CSV takes a long time and the file size is rather large.  Is there an option to save output expressions in some binary format like PSF (and is it possible to do it in skill)?  I looked around in the documentation and it seems like rdbWriteToFormat() is the closest thing I want, but it doesn't work for expressions.

    Eric,

    You can do it from the graph by selecting the traces  you want to export and doing RMB->Send To->Export and then selecting PSF. I don't believe there is a SKILL API to do this though (feel free to contact customer support to request such an enhancement).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
