Auto-wiring with narrow width for the bus after pressing space in schematic?

oyayla

Hi,

When I select a symbol in Virtuoso Schematic and press the space in the keyboard, Cadence adds the wires around the symbol and for buses, it uses wide width. Is there a way to make default selection as narrow width?

Thanks,

yayla

    Hi Yayla,

    The SKILL function behing the scene for adding wire stubs on instances is schHiCreateWireStubs(). This function does not take any argument/option as per the documentation, therefore there is no way for you to customize the width of the bus. You may want to file a ticket for Cadence to provide a switch for that. Meanwhile, Cadence provided CCSaddWire.il which you can customize to your needs. I'll leave to Andrew for further comments.

    Cheers,

    Riad.

    Yayla, Riad,

    You can control this via the Options->Editor form:

    Or via cdsenv:

    envSetVal("schematic" "autoWireStubBusTerms" 'cyclic "narrow") ; the default is "wide"

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Hi Riad, Andrew,

    Thanks for the answers.

    After changing the setting as Andrew mentioned, I was able to get what I was looking for.

    Thanks
