cadence virtuoso available utilities

Hi, some one please let me know how can i get the values of all the nodes n my circuit. i have drawn the schematic of a majority circuit in cadence virtuoso IC610 version and have done transient analysis over it. want to check the net capacitance of each node. how can this be done ?

 what is the corresponding option in gui and if there is no such option in IC610 how can it be done using the netlist. kindly explain steps

regards

    Thanks for the reply. Could you plz clarify where then will captab analysis be useful? Does it give only node to node capacitance? Could you please also advise how to inlcude options like captab in the netlist and run the netlist in cadence. I tried including the .options into the netlist generated from the ADE but that is of no use and ADE over writes it when i run green button.

    So is there way to directly modify and run the neetlist?

    As per your advidse i will not use captab for determining total capcitance of each node.

    I also want to calculate propagation delay from input to output for example for a simple NAND cmos structure. Is there any direct means from teh GUI. If not what means do you suggest?

    regards
