Subject: Is Synopsys Trying To Kill The Useful Schematics In Design Analyzer?
John,
I would like to ask Synopsys users on ESNUG to speak out if anyone has used,
or desired to use, the schematic cross probing feature of Design Analyzer.
Or maybe would have used it if it was less buggy. Anyone out there???
I ask this because Synopsys is/has been removing support for schematic cross
probing, and apparently schematic support in general from Design Analyzer.
I have been told that this is because no one uses schematics in Design
Analyzer. I was hoping to make use of it for gate level debugging. Now we
are required to generate schematic plots. Does anyone care that we pay
maintenance to have a company *remove* useful features?
