How to see the properties of two cells together which are in same layout window.

conrel

Actually what i want to do

I have two similar cells layout in which I have created many parameter  (repetitions of  contacts and vias, and stretch lines). In one cell I have set the no. of via and contact through parameter which I have created using pcell. I want to see that parameters on screen and set the others cells parameters. 

So basically i need to see the properties of layout of two cells together. Could we do that? I am using virtuoso IC Version 6.1.5 for layout.

You can also use the right mouse button to see by instance rather than by property - expand all, and various other options. In this case I'm showing the CDF parameters, but  you can choose that too:
