Re: [Gtkwave-users] Requests: signal name for bound process script, export SVG,

[<by...@nc...>]

Thanks for your comments.

1) Each signal has a separate process instance / set of stdin/stdout
attached to it for process filter, so even though you'd be able to use
a single script, performance-wise it wouldn't really make too much
difference as multiple processes will be created, anyway.

2) Unfortunately, I don't have the time for such a thing right now. PS
and Framemaker do generate lists of vectors but I don't know if a
converter exists from those to SVG. Someone else is working on a GTK4
port and I don't know if his changes will address this as I believe he
was planning on collapsing the redundant print.c code into what
signal.c/waveform.c already does.

3) The rc variables fontname_signals and fontname_waves should allow
changing the fonts. See function do_font_load() in fonts.c.

Best regards,
-Tony

Subject: [Gtkwave-users] Requests: signal name for bound process
script, export SVG,

 Hello everyone,  First of all, I must say the GTKWave is an excellent
program. Kudos! 
 I wanted to request the following: 1. Signal name for process filter
script - currently, I have a python script used as a process filter
for various signals. However, I want to parse the input data
differently, based on what signal it is coming from. Example: for
signal0 I may want to convert “-1” to “None”. However, I may
not want to do that for signal1 
 The only want I know of currently is to attach different scripts to
different signals, which is inefficient. Is there a way that the
signal name could also be passed on to the script?  
 2. Please consider having the ability to export the current view as
SVG file. It makes it much more efficient for presenting or pasting
into a webpage.  
 3. Can the font color of the text inside the waves be changed? I can
only change the background color of a waveform using the
“?bgcolor?” prefix before the name. Problem is, some background
colors are useless since the text inside is too light in color. I’m
forced to use only dark backgrounds as a result.  
 Best regards, Sujay
