I didn't see particular this issue. But we likely need to add button "break simulation" due to be able stop hanged spice simulations from GUI without stopping process with kill -9 or task manager in windows.
Looks like it's something similar I hope I will have some time to look into this issue after Oct 12 (after tapeout of my asic project, hoping I';ll have time to see the code) On 11/11/18, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > ============================================================================= > Today's topic summary > ============================================================================= > > Group: [email protected] > Url: > > https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_source=digest&utm_medium=email#!forum/electricvlsi/topics > > > - Strange windows appearing after schematic simulation in Electric [2 > Updates] > http://groups.google.com/group/electricvlsi/t/6592602661d59f74 > > > ============================================================================= > Topic: Strange windows appearing after schematic simulation in Electric > Url: http://groups.google.com/group/electricvlsi/t/6592602661d59f74 > ============================================================================= > > ---------- 1 of 2 ---------- > From: Arvind Gupta <[email protected]> > Date: Nov 10 09:09AM -0800 > Url: http://groups.google.com/group/electricvlsi/msg/640549beaa771 > > Hi, > > I was doing some schematic simulations in Electric> I noticed that after > doing the simulations, when I closed the schematic window, there were small > > windows appearing in the bottom.
