Display packets not updating when loading DRF file

Steven Mikes

I have a custom.drf file that redefines the PDK default display settings.

When I load my drf file with drLoadDrf("custom.drf"), the colors/stipples all change, but the line thickness does not! I set the 'hilite' layers to thickLine (width 3), the default was solid (width 1). Even after loading my file which clearly changes the width to 3, the hilite width does not update in the layout window. If I open the display resource manager though, go to a hilite layer, change its line thickness to something else (it is on thickLine as it should be, after loading my custom file), hit apply, then change it back to thickLine and hit apply again, THEN the line width shows up thicker in the layout window.


Any ideas how to fix this one?

  • Hi Steven,

    I also tried using Connectivity->XL Probe, without having the layers as valid layers in the LSW. It worked for me there too... this was in a clean Virtuoso session. Simply running drLoadDrf("thick.drf") worked straight away.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
