Recommended best practice for a User Interface GUI to control a pCell?

codetonic

I have a power grid pcell with stretch handles for width and height.

I also want to have a GUI for controlling the layer levels such as bottom most layers, top most layers, etc. 

The "Edit Instance Properties" (instance query) could work but it doesn't seem very elegant.

What is the best way to implement the user interface? In the code body of the pcell or as a standalone skill program?

  • Hi Michael,

    Assuming that 'pg' represents the instance id of one of these instantiated PCells, then that could be correct. Just make sure that the value is the correct type. You should be able to interactively type/develop this in the CIW.

    Best regards,
    Lawrence.
