Disable automatic tiling of subwindows in waveform windows

Hi! I was wondering if there is any way to disable the automatic tiling
of subwindows in a waveform window, when ploting the outputs of a
simulation in the Analog Desing Environment. Moreover, is there any way
to manually arrange the subwindows within a waveform window?. Sometimes
the automatic tiling / arrangement does not provide the best aspect
ratio for a curve (too little horizontal zoom and too much vertical
zoom, or too little vertical zoom and too much horizontal zoom)! Any
suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help.-

 

The newer waveform window wavescan has a menu item for doing precisely this. You
can get tiling to be vertical, horizontal, or automatic. Unfortunately I don't
remember which menu it's under (I'm on a plane, and don't want to reboot into
Linux to check). If using the older AWD waveform window, there is no control -
you have to live with the automatic tiling.

Regards,

Andrew.

 

Thanks so much for your help, Andrew... but what do you mean with
"newer"? I am using the IC package 5.0.33, is this the "older" one? I
would be really grateful if you could tell me which version includes
this new functionality. We have just received our new Cadence
distribution, but so far I haven't had time to install it. It is the IC
5.1.41 version... will this one have the feature you are talking about?

Thanks a lot,

IC5141 contains wavescan (integrated into ADE), whereas IC5033 only has
wavescan for standalone use (and it doesn't support all analyses then either).

IC5141 is the "new" release (it's been out since mid-2004) that I was talking
about.

IC5033 is getting close to it's end-of-release date (when support for hotfixes
etc stops) - at the end of December, by the way.

Regards,

Andrew.
