Hi,
I have written a rule and feeder for that, the issue is when i am feeding single element that is leaf level element it not throwing any error but when i trace feeder the window of trace feeder is blank. Like there is no words like FED. When i tried to write for consolidate element(All elemts at a time with single dimension) it throwed an error.
When the feeder is written it is mandatory that the trace feeder, that is element should show as fed.


thanks and regards.

This is exactly what you would expect or hope to see when tracing feeders. If the cell is fed you will get a blank box (i.e. no cells not fed). If the cell has leaf descendants that have rules attached but are not fed then you will get a list of all these cells that are not fed.

So in this case a blank window is good. It's not intuitive but that's just how it was designed.

Hi,

Just would like to point out the difference between "Check Feeders..." and "Trace Feeders..." because there seems to be a mix up.

I think lotsaram is describing the expected behaviour of “Check Feeders…”, which in a nut shell is “am I fed?”

“Trace Feeders…” is used to find out which other cells a cell is feeding, which is “what am I feeding?”. This can only be checked on an N-Level.

Cheers

Yes check feeders is what I meant as it seemed this is what viswaraju was referring to.
