Changing the height and width of a viva graph

wgtkan

Hello,

I would like to change the height and width of viva graph but It it doesn't seem to take effect after adding this in my .cdsinit

width
envSetVal("viva.graphFrame" "width" 'string "600")
; height
envSetVal("viva.graphFrame" "height" 'string "500")

I have also looked at these older posts:

How can I change the height and the width of the wave graph? I also went into the graph property and changed the analog height and analog width but it is not changing the height and width.

My cadence virtuoso version is :
Version IC6.1.8-64b.500.9
Spectre spectre191

Thank you very much for your help.

    These settings control the size of the overall ViVA window. I've tried them and they work fine. I set them, opened a ViVA window, and the size was controlled (using Tools->Waveform if I use the "viva" executable for example).

    The analog width and height are to control the default size of an analog strip, and minimum height - they're not the same setting as this.

    Andrew.
