Pcell stretch line default value.

[cadence_newbie]

Hi All,

When we create a stretch line in a pcell there is some default value
assoiciated with it. just wanted to know how could it be accessed in
skill code.
I tried to get it using the '->' operator and it looks as if this only
works when you have used putprop for the stretch line. Is there any
way to get around?

would greatly appreciate a reply in this regard.

thanks.

If you want to get the default value of a pcell parameter, you can
do this from the supermaster cellView by doing:

cv~>parameters~>myparam

myparam is the name of your parameter. parameters is a hierarchical parameter
containing all the pcell parameters.

If you're starting from an instance, you'd do:

inst~>master~>superMaster~>parameters~>myparam

Regards,

Andrew.
