ADE L: how to change component parameters

Hi.

I'm using ADE L to perform a simulation on a circuit (if you've read
my previous posts the circuiti is called Pixel :p).

The problem is with the clock signal: the rising time and the falling
time that I can see in the generated graph at the end of the
simulation are set to 3ns and 2ns respectively. Instead, I want to set
these values to 10ps. (the clock is generated in the TB using a simple
Always statement in the verilog code).

To do this I'm following this procedure: open Virtuoso, select Tool --
CDF --> Edit, select the library where I have to circuit
(Francesco_1), select two components called MOS_a2d and MOS_d2a and
change the values to 10ps.

The problem is, even if I do this procedure, the result doesn't
change.

I don't know if these are enough informations to understand the
problem, because I first don't really have a clear comprehension of
what is going on when I make this change in the library.

Thanks in advance!

Francesco.

As reference, I post here the solution I've find: when you open the
schematic using the config file you have to choose Launch-->Mixed
signal option --> Verimix. Doing this, a new button called "Verimix"
appears in the menu: so, go to Verimix --> Interface elements -->
Library, and select the library where you have the component with the
modified parameters (in my case the default component was in
analogLib, and modified component was in Francesco_1. doing this
procedure you tell the simulator that it has to use the modified one).

I've not really understand in depth the meaning of this procedure, but
it works so it's ok for me :)

Francesco.
