Cadence 5: Change path width with bindkey

frogconsultant
frogconsultant over 15 years ago

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

    is it possible to change the default layer width when you draw a path? for example, when i draw metal1, the default is .24um, can i make it to .5um as the default path width? in the old ic5.0. i think you could do this.
