Changing PCell parameter default value in superMaster

Ilya Temnikov
Ilya Temnikov over 14 years ago

 Hello.

 I'm using Virtuoso 6.1.3 to create my pcells. The issue is when I'm trying to change default parameter value in pcell superMaster then Virtuoso crashes. There was no such problem in CDBA Virtuoso. Is there some workaround to change the default? I execute the following command in CIW while superMaster of the pcell is opened:

dbReplaceProp(geGetEditCellView()->parameters "some_param_name" "string" "some value")

    Sorry, this is not possible in OA. You have to dump the pcell, edit the SKILL and reload it to recreate the superMaster. It is a database issue and not something Virtuoso can override.
