Dear all,
IC6.1.4 and especially Virtuoso Studio 23.1 allows to name output expressions in ADE and then used those named output expressions in other expressions by simply using its name (reference by name).
Abritrary example:
Name: gain
Expression: VF("/net1")/VF("/net2")
Name: Output Amplitude
Expression: VF("/net3")*gain
Things get complicated when "Name" is a text containing whitespaces, like "Output Amplitude", and even worse, if special characters are involved (like "Gain at 20% bias current").
The first case still works in most cases, but in the latter case, the new output expression converts the name to "Gain at 0.2 bias current" (without quotes, of course), which is not the expression name any longer and hence fails.
Is there a way to safely refer to output expressions that are named by text containing whitespaces and/or special characters?
Simply putting the name between single or double quotes or parentheses does not work.
