Problem in layout with new cadence

MariaOtz

 Hello,

I am using the new cadence for the first time (IC6.1.5)and I am having a lot of problems with the layout (layout Suite L licence).

One of the issues is that every time I create a new path. Once it is drawn, I cannot change its properties. Example: I create a M1 path of 0.5u width and I want to change it to a M3 path of 1u. When I open the properties of the path and I try to change, my computer freezes and the only way to make it work again is by restarting it.

If I want to work without restarting my computer every 5 minutes, then in case I want to change any property of a path, a transistor..., I need to delete it and create a new one. The thing is that it is anoying to do this every time, and I think that the new cadence should have the option to change the properties of things if the old one version has it.

What should I do? Can someone help me please??

    Clearly this should not happen (I'm not aware of this elsewhere, so the chances are there is something to do with interaction with your environment which is causing this). You should report this to customer support urgently.

    As a workaround, try using the property assistant (Window->Assistants->Property) to edit the properties, rather than the traditional "q" bindkey (edit properties form). 

    Regards,

    Andrew.
