Hi Sengottuvel: There are a few ways you can create a TLN (transmission line) or FFS (free-form schematic) file in LineSim. Manually, of course, as you describe, or from a PCB file (PCB tool > BoardSim > LineSim). For the most part, traditional schematic editors (e.g., DxDesigner, etc.) lack physical properties of transmission lines: e.g., microstrip or stripline, board material, trace dimensions, etc. As such, most of the data-entry effort is outside the schematic itself, meaning that you have a manual process much of the time, unless you're able to reuse a previous schematic. We *are* adding some additional automation, from Dx-to-LineSim in the not-too-distant future, but again, it's not overly difficult just to enter the schematic from scratch, and once you've got the basic schematic in there, you can make all kinds of changes pretty fast for what-if analysis.
