Subscripted constants can't be adjusted in SyntheSim mode
In DSS on 8.x builds, variables that are read in constants (e.g. via GET DIRECT CONSTANTS) can no longer be edited in SyntheSim mode, though they used to be.

Re: Subscripted constants can't be adjusted in SyntheSim mode
If you click Model->Simulate, select "Changes" and tick "Overwite GET....CONSTANTS", and then start SyntheSim, doe it work?
We introduced this as many users were inadvertently overwriting values that should be unchangeable as they came from Excel. But you can override that decision.

No, that doesn't work. The first subscripted element can be changed by dragging a slider bar, but when clicking on the bar to expand the slider control options, the subscripts under "set subscript" are all ellipses and the "Edit" button doesn't do anything.
