how to set plot type "sampleHold" by default through skill

Hi all,

IC.6.1.7-64b.500.13

I would like to generate a plot of the type "sample and hold" by default, but as far as I can see, this can only be achieved by choose Plot Type --> sample and hold in the viva waveform viewer. The viva XL skill manual says that one can use the command awvSetPlotStyle to set this parameter, but accepted values are auto, scatterPlot, bar or joined. However, if I set the waveform to sample and hold through the window and then execute awvGetPlotStyle it prompts "sampleHold" in the CIW.

Is there a way I can force the waveform to display in "sampleHold" style through command line? If I introduce "sampleHold" as plot style it does not recognize it. It would save me tons of time if I could do this by default through command line.

Regards,
