Analysis Settings

Set any of the following options as desired for each type of analysis operation.

Auto Resolve When this option is set to True, the application attempts to resolve validation errors and warnings automatically based on default and user-defined rules. If an issue cannot be resolved, a validation result is posted to the Validation Results palette in the Dashboard. If Auto Resolve is set to False, the application uses the default and user-defined rules to make sure the results meet the standards. If the Validation Results do not meet the standards, they are posted to the Validation Results palette in the Dashboard.
Block On Alerts When this option is enabled, any Design Validation Errors or non-ignored Warnings prevent subsequent Auto Validation from being performed on a particular feature. If subsequent Auto Validation generates errors or warnings, these errors or warnings also block further validation operations unless that Auto Validation item has not been set to Block on Errors.
Enabled Specify whether Auto Validation is enabled. If enabled, Auto Validation validates a feature when the feature is modified or when features related to the feature are modified. If not enabled, Auto Validation does not validate a feature when it is modified. Some analysis validations can be run manually. For example, if Voltage Drop Auto Validation is not enabled, Voltage Drop does not run automatically. However, you can run the Voltage Drop analysis manually.
Ignore Blocking Execute the analysis even if subsequent design validation is blocked by alerts. For example, Sweep validation is executed before Material validation. If Block On Alerts for Sweep is True, any alerts raised while running the Sweep validation prevent any Material validation from being executed unless Ignore Blocking for Material is True.
