placing horizontal marker using skill function: awvPlaceYMarker

DA202602028132

Hi All

I am using viva to review waveforms, usually with multiple strips

During examination of waveforms, I wish to place a horizontal (Y) marker on selected waveform's strip, at a certain position (example below)

I have used the skill function: awvPlaceYMarker, and used its argument: ?stripNum

This is the skill function i've assembled (the y value is 0.3)

awvPlaceYMarker(awvGetCurrentWindow() 0.3 ?stripNum awvGetStripNumberOfSelectedTrace(awvGetCurrentWindow()) ?label "test")

This skill function does not work reliably - it places Y marker at wrong strips, or in other cases does not place any marker

Please guide me - how to correctly assemble a reliable skill function that places horizontal Y marker on selected waveform strip

Thanks

Daniel

The example: there are two waveforms, each is placed in its separated strip, see image below, signal names: a (red, bottom strip), b (blue, top strip)

I selected the signal 'b' (top strip), activated the skill function, and the Y marker was placed on signal 'a' strip (bottom strip)

    On my first attempt, this worked fine. Then I moved strips around, and awvGetStripNumbersList(awvGetCurrentWindow()) was returning (2 3). I attempted to place a y marker on strip 3, and it failed - I had to use strip 1 for it to work, which is odd.
