How to display Object Properties on schematics?

archive

    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.

    Load this code:

    procedure(CCSPropDisplay(cellname propName)
    let( (cv prop)
    cv = geGetWindowCellView()
    foreach(inst cv~>instances
    if(inst~>cellName == cellname
    then
    if(prop=dbFindProp(inst propName)
    then
    ;;check for existence of assocTextDisplay
    unless(prop~>assocTextDisplays
    dbCreateTextDisplay(prop inst list("device" "annotate")
    list("justify" "orient")
    list(xCoord(lowerLeft(inst~>bBox)) yCoord(upperRight(inst~>bBox)))
    "centerCenter" "R0" "stick" 0.0625)
    printf("\nCreated textDisplay Object")
    )
    prop~>assocTextDisplays~>isVisible =t
    )
    ) ;if
    ; dbSave(cv)
    ) ;foreach
    ) ;let
    ) ;proc


    Open your cellview. Call:

    CCSpropDisplay("mycell" "myprop")

    Replace "mycell" with actual cell whose props you are looking at and myprop is the property name.
