-new

Creates a new instance of the window type specified with the <window_name>

option. New window names are created by appending an integer to the window

type, starting with 1, then incrementing the integer.

<window_name> ...

Specifies the ModelSim window type to view. Multiple window types may be

used; at least one type (or wildcard) is required. Available window types are:

dataflow, list, process, signals, source, structure, variables, and

wave

Also creates a new instance of the specified window type when used with the -new

option. You may also specify the window(s) to view when multiple instances of

that window type exist, i.e., wave2 structure1.

Examples

view wave

Creates a window named ‘wave’. Its full Tk path is ‘.wave’.

view -new wave

Creates a window named ‘wave1’. Its full Tk path is ‘.wave1’. Wave1 is now the default

Wave window. Any add wave command

(CR-33) would add items to wave1.

view wave

Changes the default window back to ‘wave’.

add wave -win .wave1 mysig

Will override the default window and add mysig to wave1.
