display parameters in Virtuoso

[okguy]

In virtuoso, by default, the display width w of MOS-transistors is OFF.
You need to select the instance, request the properties, and change the
display property of the width w to BOTH (name and value).

In CDS.log, the message is :
schHiObjectProperty()
schObjPropForm->w_dsp->value = "both"

I want to embed it in a skill routine, so I tried:
dbReplaceProp(cell "w_dsp" "string" "both")
But it does not work .

My question is :
How to do it within a skill routine ?

Thanks,
OkGuy

Any idea on how to display devices properties with Skill within virtuoso
schematic editor ?

I am away from my documentation but I think that these properties are
CDF properties and they would need to be reevaluated in order to be
made active. Look for SABforceCDFeval through the search function to
find a code example how to reevaluate CDF callbacks. I may be wrong
about the assumption that we are talking about CDF parameters.

If you're talking about the display column in the edit properties form, then
what that does is create a textDisplay object which references that property.

You can add these using dbCreateTextDisplay.

Alternatively, CDF parameters can be displayed using ILLabels on the symbol
etc (often "cdsParam(2)" etc) which are controlled using the CDF label display
information (the various ADE backannotation options use these).

Andrew.
