CDF Parameter change

What do you mean by "changing the instance master"?

Andrew

changing the cellname to another cellname (same number of terminals). Technically replacing the device with another one but different cellname

Presumably the CDF defaults are different between the two cells - isn't that a reasonable and quite likely thing to be happening? There's no reason why they should necessarily be the same...

Yes, the CDF defaults are different, but how can I prevent it from changing (since they have the same cdf parameters with different defaults), I want it to inherit the values. So technically just changing the cellname but keeping values from previous cell cdf parameters

I rather doubt you really want this, but this code will force any CDF defafult values to be stored on the instance even if storeDefault=no in the CDF:

procedure(CCFforceStoreParam(inst)
  let((cdf valueType)
    cdf=cdfGetInstCDF(inst)
    foreach(param cdf~>parameters
      unless(dbFindProp(inst param~>name)
        valueType=case(param~>paramType
          (("string" "cyclic" "radio") "string")
          ("float" "float")
          ("int" "int")
          ("boolean" "boolean")
        )
        when(valueType
          dbReplaceProp(inst param~>name valueType param~>value)
        )
      )
    )
    t
  )
)

To use:

CCFforceStoreParam(car(geGetSelSet()))

then you can change the cellName to the new cell. Note that even parameters like the model name will be preserved which you almost certainly don't want to happen, but that's what you asked for!
