waveform layout in VIVA version IC6.1.5-64b.500.16.2

Dear all,

At present, the specified version of viva is able to place multiple waveforms using card/horizontal/vertical/Auto layout in a viva window.

Now imagine 3 waveforms in which a design variable is set to 'a', 'b', and 'c'. I specifically ask viva to plot case 'a' in subwindow 1, case 'b' in subwindow 2, and case 'c' in subwindow 3 and I expect subwindows appear from left to right 1,2, and 3. But the result is sometimes incorrect: for example a,b,c in 3,2,1 or in 1,3,2 etc.

Can a user control the order subwindows appear in a viva window? I stress I have explicitly asked viva to plot a,b,c in sunbwindows 1,2,3 and I expect subwindows 1,2,3 from left to right but still sometimes I see incorrect orders?!

Any idea here?

Thanks for your help.

Are you switching back and forth between the modes (e.g.
card/horiz/vert/auto)? If so, there was a bug where the order of the
subwindows got messed up which has now been fixed, I believe. I think it
may have been in IC616 that it was fixed...

How are you specifying which subwindow they're in? Is this
interactively, or via an OCEAN script?

Regards,

Andrew.

Hi Andrew:

I am specifying the order through scripting (I plot case 'a' in subwindow 1 which appears in my script first; case 'b' in subwindow 2 which appears next and so on). I get the incorrect order right after my script is executed and VIVA appears and prior to any mode change. It happens sometimes, not always. The same script worked well under Cadence 5.x

Is there also a way to specify the order interactively? Can I change the order through the VIVA GUI somehow??

You can't change the order interactively. I'm surprised that the script
doesn't work properly though - I've not seen that.
