A situation I run into often is the need to close and clear an ADE-XL session, primarily to get a fresh starting point without closing my Cadence session.
The immediate problem I have is that I want to re-open the same ADE-XL as I was using, but I cannot because (per an error message) already running in another window. There is no window where it exists, however.
What I'd like to do is clear it out in the same way I can close all open schematics, layouts, etc. by using CIW->File->Close Data. But apparently this action has no effect on the ADE-XL. (Perhaps it is really a process, not a file?)
I feel like this must have a simple solution that I have just missed...?
(Cadence version is apparently 6.18.070.)
