How to display Object Properties on schematics?

archive
archive over 17 years ago

    Hi,

I am new to Cadence Virtuoso Schematic Editor. I had a quick question.

I have a user defined property on instances in my schematics. If I select the instance and press key 'q', it gives me a pop-up menu for 'Edit Object Properties'. There, I do see the property listed in the User Property section and having a Local Value assigned to it.

However, the Display option next to it is off by default. I was wondering if there is a way to turn it on 'only' for this very property by default so that I don't have to go and change the 'Display->off' option to 'Display->value' by hand for every instance.

Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Thank you.

    I would assume that such a user property would originate from its symbol. So, I will go and open the symbol of this instance and check in Edit->properties->Cellview

    I will turn on the value option for this particular property in question and check and save my symbol. Now, it should be visible for all instances.
