Modify dynamic shape parameters using SKILL

migrg

Hi, I'm trying to modify the shape parameters (thermal relief, void controls, etc.) using SKILL. I can access the object but I don't see any properties or parameters to modify (prop is nil). Any ideas of where those properties hide in the database? Here is what I can see in the SKILL command line, id is the dbid of the shape

id~>??
(prop nil priority -7 dynamicGroup
dbid:0x2aee03f17098 taper nil shapeAuto

  • An old thread, and seems no answer. I am also looking for the way these days. 

    make a long story short, axlGetParam("shapeDynamic")  can just get the global parameter of the shape. 

    But how can get the parameter of a shape instance by skill, especially get the override value. 

    Does any know that? Thanks.

    Hi Season,

    Using Skill you currently cannot modify the parameters of an individual dynamic shape, you can only do it at the global level for all dynamic shapes. I have cases submitted to Cadence regarding this exact topic. Still no word on if/when it will be implemented.
