Netlist to Schematic size problems on IC5141 (Width and Length are 0)

Hello.

I'm trying to generate a Schematic from a Netlist file on IC5141. Although I can successfully import the Netlist file and actually generate the Schematic, there is a problem with the devices' Width and Length.

For example, in my Netlist I have the following: 
MM1 Q QN vdd! vdds! psvtgp w=0.135 l=0.06 nfing=1 sense=0 ngcon=1 m=1
+ accurateFlow=0


However, once imported, the device apparently doesn't reads the W and L values and sets it to 0 in the Schematic.

My device-mapping file looks like this:
devMap := nfet nsvtgp
termMap := D d S s G g B b
propMap := W w L l
devMap := pfet psvtgp
termMap := D d S s G g B b
propMap := W w L l


Any ideads as to why this is happening? I've been looking for a solution for this for the past couple of days and, thus far, haven't been able to find one.

Thanks in advance,
Michel Arendt

     I would suggest you contact customer support - being able to see the CDF of the devices in the PDK would help to understand what's going on.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
