ICAP/4 Products

How does ICAP/4 compare to overall capability of competitive simulators such as Electronics Workbench, Pspice and MultiSim?

SpiceNet Design Entry System

	Is there a way to fit my entire schematic back into the schematic window?
	Once any window size has been changed to a different size than its default, can it remain that size each time I go into the application (schematic, waveform viewer, IsSpice4 window, etc.)?
	Will SpiceNet accept a sub-drawing internally made of two different configurations?
	Can you inflict for example a 1mv AC ripple on top of an input signal source (i.e., square wave)?
	Can different schematic layers be put into different pages?

Model Libraries and Tools

	Is there a way to construct active devices such as op-amps, comparators, etc.?
	How can I find a part in the parts browser without wading through all the Sub Types and Parts List?
	Can an AC analysis run accurately on behavioral models such as the Divide model?

Simulation

	Is there a way to pause a simulation when it is run for the first time?
	How can I view numerical values for electrical measurements at desired points in the design, apart from viewing waveforms?
	Is there a way to measure power violations in components?
	How can I instantly view waveforms in IntuScope, resulting from component changes prescribed in the Simulation Control window's "Expressions" or "Stimulus" functions?
	Can you set certain components' tolerances to one value for one type of analysis (i.e., resistors and capacitors at 2% for a transient analysis), then automatically have those component’s tolerances set to another value for another type of analysis (i.e., AC analysis)?
	What are "Lots" in Monte Carlo analysis?
	What's the difference between setting .IC initial conditions for a transient simulation, verses using the NODESET command for setting initial conditions?

Verification Analyses

Is there a way I can assign a sweep's inner/outer names without having to first go to the Part Properties dialog?

IntuScope Waveform Viewer

	Is there a way to display cursors when the X axis is prescribed something other than the default units of measure (e.g., Time)?
	Is there a way to change the background colors of a graph, labels, traces, etc.?
	How can I automatically update waveforms already displayed after a new simulation has been run?
	Can you measure delta Y-axis data (i.e., voltage) between two signals in using the waveform cursors?

Magnetics Designer

	How do you convert circular mils to centimeters squared?
	How does area vary in relation to linear dimension?

	Can I assign more than one winding per layer?
	How do I calculate leakage inductance between windings?
