 Dear All,

When I am using APS for PSS (shooting Method) using swap file,  APS is being disbled.

How can prevent APS being disabled.

Kind Regards,

     Dear Andrew,

    I did without using SWAP file and APS is enabled.

    By the way, I am getting following notice:-

        Notice from spectre during IC analysis, during periodic steady state analysis `pss'.
        Bad pivoting is found during DC analysis. Option dc_pivot_check=yes is recommended for possible improvement of convergence.

    This is certainly not due to APS.

    But I want to know why it is happening and where I can find  "Option dc_pivot_check=yes" to make it "yes". What will be its effect.

    I have attached the spectre.out file.

    Could you please have a look at it tell me why the notice is cropping up.

    Kind Regards,
