Hello all,

Thank You,

Regards

    It seems like EMX is not capable of finding the label "MINUS", usually selecting cadence pins in advanced options solves the problem, though I believe the pin you create in the layout should match the layer of the conductor that is connected to. It would be helpful if you can share snapshot of how you defined the pin in the layout!

    It appears that the pins are being identified because the text appears in the gdsview output (I'm guessing you have pins rather than labels, and have set up the EMX form to set the pins). It's hard to know how you've set things up though - so I would suggest contacting customer support so that somebody can look at this with you; that would be the most efficient. After logging into the support site, you can create a support case.
