Hi All,

Is it possible to change the wave format radix to hexadecimal in Questa by adding some command in .do files ?

Thanks,
Puneet

I tried using the radix=hex option in .modelsim.ini
That didn't work. So I changed the .cshrc file to point to my local
file called modelsim.ini and used the radix=hex option in that file.
It seems to work.

If you wanted to use it in the .do file, you'd just need to type
"radix hex" in the beginning in the do file.

Thanks SS,Dan

I added "radix hex" in the .do file and It worked fine. Now I can save few clicks :)

Hi Punnet,
SS has already replied you. I just wanted to add few more, which
will definitely help to understand about changing radix during
simulation time.
Questa has a vey simple .do file command called "radix" to examine/
change the radix in run time.
If you simply put radix in your .do file, it will return radix
which is set by deafult (I think, by default It is symobolic). Now,
whenever you want to change the radix, simply put either of "radix
hex", "radix binary" or "radix octal" as per your requirement.
