Cadence 5: Change path width with bindkey

frogconsultant

Without the possibility to change the default width to the correct value in the PDK, I am trying to develop a bindkey in cadence 5.1.41 which will do the trick.

hiSetBindkey("Layout" "<Key>F11" "leHiEditProp() width->value=130")

After selection of the path, I am hitting the "F11" I have the property form opening but the following is not interpreting. Does someone know how to affect the width after that?

Best regards

  • Bonjour Frogconsultant ;-)

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>F11" "geGetSelSet()~>width=1.30")

    (I assume you didn't really want to set it to 130um?).

    This will change the width of all selected paths. In fact if you have things other than paths selected, it will add a width property on them too (which might not be desirable). If you want to restrict it to paths, you could do:

    hiSetBindKey("Layout" "<Key>F11" "setof(obj geGetSelSet() obj~>objType==\"path\")~>width=1.30")

    Regards,

    Andrew.
