SubmitJob

Submits a batch job to a scheduler. When submitting the same project file multiple times, you should have the script wait for each job (or jobs for multi-step) to finish, which can be done via the monitoring functions LaunchJobMonitor() and RefreshJobMonitor(), checking the result of RefreshJobMonitor() in a loop until it returns completed ("Monitor Not Visible") status.

UI Access

Tools > Job Management > Submit Job.

<design (optional)>	String	Name of the design to use for batch solve.

Array of job ID strings (empty if no jobs submitted).
