    Please read the forum guidelines. You've not supplied anywhere enough information for me to be able figure out what you've tried, what you're hoping to achieve, what version you're using or pretty much anything else. I could spend a lot of time trying to guess what you mean, misfiring and trying again, but it would be much simpler if you asked a clear question in the first place...

    Thanks!

    Let me provide more details of the situation.

    A new library with a bunch of standard cells (mosfet, diodes, resistors etc) was added. When you use any of these cells in a design and you for example run a dc analysis, and you want to see the dc operating parameters via annotations on the schematic. It doesnt display anything from any cell from this new library. My question how can I enable annotation for this new library. I  have tried to edit the cdf to add parameters in the specific device but i am still not seeing the output of the annotations. Is there any specific format to add the parameters in the cdf?  I appreciate your help in debugging my situation.

    virtuoso version 6.1.7-64b
    sub-version IC6.1.7-64b.500.20

    Thanks

    Since you've not shown what you're doing, it's hard to guess what you've done and what  you've not done. I suggest you contact customer support.
