Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL

 Hello, cadence community,

I would like to leave feedback about  "Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL" in Cadence 6.15. Please, in further releases redesign this tool (or bring back the good old IC5.xx visualisation tool) for these reasons:

  • OCEAN command fail to work with this tool. I'll name several: awvSetYAxisLabel,awvResizeWindow -do nothing on the graph, moreover there is no way to create an %X,%Y marker using OCEAN commands. Plus there is no way of renaming the waveform using OCEAN - therefore multiple waveform plots are simply useless from OCEAN.
  •  The graph plot tool (export graph to *.png, bmp...) is awful - the background colour is black by default (haven't found a way to change the default colour). The quality of the plots is also so-so (whereas the plot in ICS5.xx the exported plot has the size of the initial waveform window)

 Overall, IC6.15 is mutch more user friendly than IC5.xx, but the "Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL" is a step back.

 

Regards,

Aleksandr.
