Why spectre generated-netlist always show the wrong subckt name "unmos4_schematic" but not "unmos4" ?

Hello,

I want to build a cell called unmos4 and hope the spectre-generated netlist showing as follows

.subckt unmos4 D G S B

parameters nw=1 nl=1

M1(D G S B) ne2 w=nw l=nl as=0.49*(nw) ad=0.49*(nw) pd=0.98+2*(nw) ps=0.98+2*(nw)

ends unmos4

MN0 (out net043 gnd gnd) unmos4 nw=3 nl=0.35

HOWEVER, the result shows that there is extra "_schematic" after unmos4

.subckt unmos4_schematic D G S B

parameters nw=1 nl=1

M1(D G S B) ne2 w=nw l=nl as=0.49*(nw) ad=0.49*(nw) pd=0.98+2*(nw) ps=0.98+2*(nw)

ends unmos4_schematic

MN0 (out net043 gnd gnd) unmos4_schematic nw=3 nl=0.35

 

May I know how to remove "_schematic" after unmos4?

 

The CDF is as follows

Component Parameters

model paramType=string, parseANumber=no, parseAsCEL=yes, storeDefault=no, name=model, prompt=unmos4

Simulation Information

Choose Simulator=spectre, otherParameters=model, instParameters= nw nl, componentName=unmos4, termOrder=d g s b

Same problem of extra "_schematic"  is also found when hspiceD netlisting for simulation.

 Choose Simulator=hspiceD, instParameters= nw nl, componentName=unmos4, namePrefix=X, termOrder=D G S B, termMapping= nil D \,D G\, G S \,S B \,B 

Thank you very much in advance for any help, feedback and comments

    Thanks Andrew very much for explanation.

    From your reply, _viewName exists due to (1)used a config and (2) more than one view has been selected.

    The libraries included in Library Manager are

    US_8ths, ahdlLib, analogLib, basic, cdsDefTechLib, functional, rfExamples, rfLib, my_chrt035

    I only build unmos4 in my_chrt035 library.

    If any more details are required, please kindly leave reply here.

    May I know where & how I can know what config I used? Or where/how can I know that more than one view has been selected? And how to fix this selection in order to remove _viewName?

    Thank you very much in advance for any comments/feedbacks.
