custom pcell for symbol/schematic that has variable number of terminals

Hi, 

Does anyone have a small example of a pcell code for a symbol varying the number of ports?

The CDF with the variable netlisting on ports would also be great. 

Cadence help does not really provide guidlines for shematic, only layout.

thanks,

Mauricio

    Regards,

    Andrew.
