envSetVal "labelHeight" (IC6) from .cdsinit

stuso

 hi guys,

i can do the following in my ciw/virtuoso window:

envSetVal( "layout" "labelHeight" 'float 0.05 )

and using envGetVal it seems to have worked ok.

However when i add the same line to my .cdsinit andstart a new cadence session it does not sseem to have any effect. I'm sure my .cdsinit is being loaded as i have some print statements in there at the start and end of the .cdsinit.

Thanks

Stu

FYI: i am trying to set the default label size for pins for when i generate/update with XL

    Stu,

    I'm a bit embarrassed that I didn't notice that typo! I stared at it for a while and clearly didn't spot that...

    Anyway, the .cdsenv is definitely loaded before the .cdsinit, so I can only imagine that there's an envLoadFile or envLoadVals (or maybe leEnvLoad) call in the .cdsinit somewhere (or in a file loaded from the .cdsinit)?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
