    script to save waveforms into a file Reply

     Hello,

    is there a way to save simvision's waveforms into a file from the SimVision shell? 

    From what I checked, you can save waves into a file using the menu File -> Export

    But I'd like to script this task. Is there a way?

    Thanks!

     Yes, you can use the SimVision "database export" command for this. (See the SimVision command reference manual for details on this command.)

     Thanks.

    Thanks for your reply!!

    I'm actually interested in generating a ps or png file  (i.e., an image) for documentation. 

    Is that possible to script it?

     thanks.

     There is a "waveform print -file" command that supports printing the waveforms to a postscript file.  Again, check to docs for details.

     Thanks.
