create a new switch for variable acces using ocean script

Hi everyone! I would like to create a new switch that's is very similar to sp2tswitch (analogLib). The only difference between them is that i could assign a variable name instead of having to go to the window component and acces components parameters directlly. By the way, the idea is to control the switch using a variable in a ocean script. How can i do that? Is that possible? Best regards, Canosa

     Hi Andrew,

    This method doesn't seem to work with the current Virtuoso (IC615_505)

     When I try to edit the 'cyclic' Type to 'string' I see

    ________________________

    *WARNING* Effective CDF parameter 'tranPosition', cell 'param_sw2p', library 'P6277',
        'choices' field invalid for this type of parameter.
    *WARNING* Effective CDF parameter 'position', cell 'param_sw2p', library 'P6277',
        Can't override a parameter's type.

    ____________________

    I'm trying to create a 2-pole switch controlled by a design parameter from ADE

    Maybe there's already some other way of doing this, I didn't find it from a quick search.

    Please advise

    Cheers,

    Gautham
