About unbound variable - cdfgForm.

Hi,

I have skill script to intantiate a symbol in schematic view, then start updating cdf paramters with new values. 

1. It only works if I open any view with any instance, press letter q to bring up "Edit Property Form" (cdfgForm assigned to some form struct). 

2. Otherwise I always got error message "Unbound variable - cdfgForm" and I check cdfgForm is nil.

Appreciate any comment.

Thanks,

MinhPhuong,

    This is because the CDF callbacks you are trying to invoke are expecting the form to be there. In general this is not desirable but  it's commonplace. If you use the code in solution https://support.cadence.com/apex/homePage then this can deal with it. You can probably find other versions of this code by googling for abInvokeCdfCallbacks or CCSinvokeCdfCallbacks.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
