pcell plugin graphical pin issue

FormerMember
FormerMember over 3 years ago

Hello,

  I made a custom pcell using the pcell plugin.  doing a very simple option of multiple pin out configurations for say 5 inputs(a, b, c, d, e).  Some will be M1, some M2, and some M3.  created all the geometries that i wanted and then used conditional inclusions for all the different scenarios.  i get pcell error when most of the options are used except for the bottom most option.  I'm thinking it isn't liking the pins getting created if the names already exist or somthing?  it seems the pins closest to 0,0 of the cell work, and the others don't, unless the bottom most option is selected.  then they all will come on.

Any ideas?  i was trying to get this to work with the graphical pcell so it is easy to modify/etc for future users.

Thanks,

Dan B.
