TINA/Spice: Automatic separate outputs

Noah,

Can you clarify what you mean by "outputs not curves"? Curves are output as well, so I want to understand what you are calling curves and what you are calling outputs.

In the diagram window, under the View menu, there are options to "separate outputs" and to "separate curves". Separate curves puts every trace on a different set of axies. Separate outputs gives each output its own axis, but collects the different parameterized runs.

For "separate outputs", if I measured a voltage and a current for three different values of a parameterized resistor, I would get two graphs, one of three voltages and one of three curves. If you do "separate curves", you get six separate graphs, and can't easily compare the different cases.

HI Noah,

OK, I see what you are saying now. I don't think there is a way to do what you want at this time, but I will check and get back with a definitive answer.

Would it be acceptable with a new option of creating for each output (probe)  a separate diagram under a separate tab in the diagram window?

You could then see the stepped curves in one diagram or separate diagrams for but in new diagram or each output. Currently you can do that if you have one active output at each run only. You can achieve that by double clicking the label of the currently unwanted output and setting its IO State to None.
