"For years Genesys was refined, improved and ultimately pushed to the limit. But two-decade old code and syntax hampered moving forward. After the transition to Agilent, it was just a huge project to update the code and get the innovations in the software working smoothly.
"But I love 2007.03, and beta testing the new release has been a joy. Genesys is well positioned for another decade of growth."
- Randy Rhea,
founder of Eagleware and active Genesys user

LiveReport - a convenient new project dashboard/documentation page; live interaction with multiple objects; enables printing of several previously unprintable objects such as scripts, equations, multiple plots/page; new WYSIWYG Print Previewer.
NEW! Genesys LiveReport Video - Datasets - allow you to post-process and archive persistent simulation data, measurement data, and dissimilar kinds of analyses, plus, allow the environment to load much faster. Text data import.
- Equation and script editor, with line numbers, matrix, string, Boolean, and multi-dimensional operations, dozens of new measurement functions, IFFT, FFT, derivative, integral functions and much more. Mousewheel zoom. Structured programming constructs (if, then, else, for, next, while). Split window view, showing results of evaluated variables as you type.
- On-screen parameter editing, named nodes/nets, Touchstone import, Spice model import/export; support for import of SPICE partlist-only.
- Graphs - Eye diagrams, checkpoints, anti-aliased traces, zoomable level diagrams, pannable Smith charts, Smith charts with impedance lines, axis favorites, goal areas.
