Dear friends,

I've built up a new mechanism as a point_process "ampa.mod". It's not inserted into the cell by the command "insert ampa", but trigged by a NetCon event.

The problem is that I can not find the current 'i_ampa' when I click <plot what>. The same thing also happens when I use the built-in pointprocess.Such as VClamp: in the "Point Manger" window I can see the value of the current, but I can not plot it out.

Is there any way to get these kinds of values out?

Thanks a lot!

Suffix notation
varname_mechanismname
is only for distributed mechanisms. Point processes are class definitions, and individual
instances of a point process use dot notaion
objrefname.varname
to access parameters and variables. Read chapter 5 of The NEURON Book, or at least
