    Hi, I always use  dbCreateParamSimpleMosaic()

    Here is an example:  1 row, 4 colums, W=1.0, mylib->pmos mosaic.

     

    dbCreateParamSimpleMosaic(
          cv ;Our cellview
          dbOpenCellViewByType("mylib" "pmos" "layout")
          nil ;Default name
          list(0.0 0.0) ;Where to place the mosaic
          "R0" ;No rotation
          1 ;N. of rows
          4 ;N. of colums
          5.0 ;Offset X (from 0.0)
          5.0 ;Offset Y (from 0.0)

         ;And the list of my parameters.

          list(
            list(
              "w" "float" 1.0
            )
          )
        )

    The most likely scenario is that you got the names of the parameters wrong, or the type of the parameters maybe - but most likely the parameter names.

    Check them by doing:

    cv=dbOpenCellViewByType("libName" "pcellName" "layout")
    cv~>parameters~>value~>name

    Perhaps you can post both the output of the above statement, and also the SKILL call you have to dbCreateParamSimpleMosaicByMasterName (or dbCreateParamSimpleMoasic) so we can see what you're doing. I don't know of any problems with these functions (as far as I can recall). Also which version of the software you're using could be useful to know (type getVersion(t) in the CIW).

    Regards,

    Andrew.
