MLCad: LSynth buttons unpressable - Merlijn Wissink - 2014-10-12

Hello,

I've encountered some sort of problem and I don't know the solution to it.
When using MLcad and LSynth, at some point the LSynth buttons become unpressable except the one to add a new LSynth command. This is the second time I have this "problem" but the last time it appeared just after I finished the model, so it wasn't a problem, but this time, I still need to add some LSynth stuff.

Is it just me looking over something? Anyone knows how to get the LSynth buttons working again?

It's not a bug, it's a feature. ;-) The buttons are greyed out as long as there is no comment, that starts with "SYNTH BEGIN [...]".
You just have to add a new synth command, then all buttons should be back.

Well, I forgot to say that the model includes several LSynth commands...

I'm sorry for the double post, but I found the problem. For some reason, on the the SYNTH END statements was replaced to somewhere where it shouldn't be. I think that confused LSynth...

Stupid though, that I never saw that before.. It gets so confusing when you have so many LSynth parts in a model.

Yeah... generally I create constraints in the model, but do the lsynth work (often one by one) outside main model in a separate file.
