Forum Post: Orcad Capture - How to change the colour of multiple text based objects at the same time ?
Hi How do I go about changing the colour of multiple selected items such as "Net Aliases", Notes, RefDez etc in Capture ?. I can only change the colour one entity at a time. Basically what I was expecting is to Ctrl click each object then right click properties and change the colour. That does not seem to be an option ? I am running the current version. Thanks..

Forum Post: RE: Can't retain the create->probe option across sch designs in tabs
Your code actually just opens the selected instances in a new tab, it does not really do a descend. If you compare the resulting tabs, you will notice that eg. the title bar for a real descend is " ( )" (while your's should only show " ") and that the navigator has the hierarchy of the original cell with the treeview set to the descended subcell, and with that also inheriting the probes. Unfortunately I cannot tell what exactly has to be done after the open command to achieve this, but there is a solution, which almost does what you want. CCSschDescendWithUserControls It basically calls the builtin descend but initializes the values of the descend window, thus it does not open. You just would need to write a loop that modifies the current selection to select the wished instances one by one and call the core part with the hiEnqueueCmd and schHiDescendRead. You would however need to decide how to handle bus instances. Also make sure to skip pcells (e.g. ... && !cells~>master~>superMaster).

Select the items you want and right click - Edit Properties. In the Property Editor, select the relevant tab then right click the property name (ie Color) and choose Edit, this allows you to set a color for those object types. Repeat for the other tabs along the bottom). The other method (but this is more global) is to go to Options - Preferences, and set the Colors for the objects there.

Forum Post: How to highlight the net which does not contains the alphanumeric number in the pins?
Hi All, In my design has two components COMP1 and COMP2 . COMP1 pin number is only number (1,2,3..) . COMP2 pin number is only alphanumeric(A1,A2...) . i want to find out the net which is connected to only COMP1. How to highlight the net which does not contains the alphanumeric number in the net pins? procedure( _nname() axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall")) axlSetFindFilter(?enabled "Nets" ?onButtons "Nets") axlSelect() net = car(axlGetSelSet()) foreach(branch, net ->branches foreach(child, branch ->children when(child ->objType == "pin" pins= cons(child, pins) ) pin_nums = () foreach(one pins pin_num = one->number pin_nums = cons(pin_num pin_nums) ) ) ) ) *pin_nums = ( "458" "H5" "1" "71" "76" "79" "84" "86" "90" "95" "98" "103" "108" "113" "116" "121" "127" "132" "135" "140" " K1 " ) Regards, karthik

Forum Post: RE: Can't retain the create->probe option across sch designs in tabs
As henker said, you are opening your design hierarchy in new tabs instead of descending the hierarchy, which will retain the net highlighting among other things. The " CCSschDescendWithUserControls " shared below solves a good problem but has some limitations as far as your issue is concerned, especially when iterating through multiple instances. I have written the following code for you, it's on my git repo, I have tested it on a schematic design however I don't have any layouts to test at the moment. The script is well documented, FTTdescend.il Cheers, Riad.

Forum Post: modulated PAC analysis
Hi, I am currently using Virtuoso IC6.1.6 and running SpectreRF simulation in MMSIM151. I am attempting to run a modulated PAC simulation. Please see my setup below: One thing I do not know is the meaning of "Output Upper Sideband". Also, if I switch the "Input Type" from SSB to "SSB/AM/PM", "Output Upper Sideband" changes to "Input Modulated Harmonic" as seen below: My understanding in this case is that it is supposed to set the input frequency range (only one can be chosen). But isn't this already set from the Relative harmonic and frequency sweep range specification? I have found very scarce documentation on this field. Any help is appreciated. regards, SC

Hi Andrew, Thank you very much for your prompt reply and guidance. Highly appreciate it. As you suggested the path to Assura was wrong. Corrected it and the Assura tool popped up in Virtuoso and we were able to run DRC successfully. Once again an enormous thanks for your swift reply and guidance.

Look at the control panel gadget for the mouse. Logitech allows you to map text commands to extra mouse buttons on their gaming mouse (different section of the Best Buy store last time I looked.) Haven't set up the application detection yet. More often than I want, have to waddle through PADS temporarily and keep sending it "etchedit" and "placementedit".

Which triggers the question: who is mapping which commands on their mice? Third one I have is "spin", abandoned after finding the shift-key "smudge" shortcut when moving parts in placementedit mode (triggers the spin or rotate command on that part.)

Forum Post: RE: Orcad Capture - How to change the colour of multiple text based objects at the same time ?
Hi Steve, There is no Right Click "Edit Properties" option when I select multiple items. For example I selected 3 net aliases "Net Names" so they are highlighted using ctrl+click. Choose right click and the edit properties option is greyed out. I can change the net alias colour one at a time, I am trying to do more than one at a time. Here is a picture There is other high strangeness too. When I create symbols that contain lines, I cant select them all at one time and do a global change on the line style. While the lines are selected if I do a right click the edit properties option is also greyed out. Selecting one line at a time it is easy to change the style as it is too with net aliases etc. Maybe i'm missing something here ? Thanks..

No, I misunderstood what you wanted. You can't do what you want. You can only use the Options - Preferences to set colors for all net aliases or all refdes. or do them individually

Forum Post: RE: Calculate DNL of a DAC in Cadence
It would be helpful to share what you tried that didn't work when you tried the dnl() function in the the waveform calculator. Per the manual (Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis XL User Guide, Calculator Functions, Special Functions, dnl), the calculation is pretty much what you have said. dnl[k (or maybe k+1)] = (sig[k] - sig[k-1])/ideal_step - 1. Part of the trick in using this function is how to specify the time points. Make sure you read that part carefully. You either have to supply the sampling interval, a list of time points, or a clock waveform whose edges define the sampling points to the function. In addition, you need for your simulation to step the DAC through its codes.
