<p>Eric,</p>
<p> There are certainly ways to turn off the plots. Unfortunately
once you do then you can't get them back after the simulation has
run. As you noted, the plot will remember which traces were active
and which were off. It does this using a file that has the
extension *.pti and the name of the *.dck being run. The *.pti
file is created if it doesn't exist and is read in if it does
(this is how it remembers from run to run). The *.pti is a text
file so you can certainly edit it to predefine which traces are
active and which are not. However, it is not commented but I think
it uses 1s and 0s to denote whether a trace is active or not. <br>
</p>
<p> I'd run the simulation and kill it right away so that the *.pti
gets written. I'd then experiment with editing the *.pti to see if
you can back engineer what information it is writing. It may take
some experimentation!</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>
