adjusting plot settings automagically

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Greetings all,

Has anyone ever had any success with adjusting the settings under Plot Setup using a method other than a replay-script? Directly with SKILL, or maybe writing out a control file then triggering a reading of that file?


TIA,

    Hi Chris,

    I don't think that method works unless you re-open the session after modifying the lines in the allegro.ini file itself.
    It would be great if we could have access to these as normal environment variables. It drives me crazy having to run scripts to do this type of task. I suggest you raise an enhancement request to have these included as standard environment variables.

    Cheers, Dave
