Changing properties on a dynamic shape.

On dynamic shapes you can edit properties but the software does not same them. Is there a way to make this work ?

    This is working for me so make sure you are using the latest version of whatever version you are running. 17.2-2016 S064 or 17.4-2019 S003 both available from support.cadence.com or Download Manager

    I am on s064. I select a dynamic shape/ property edit select pins allowed , change to blank, apply, close screen then reselect shape and property edit and there is no properties set on the right side. Can you duplicate this and see the property set ?

    Yes because this property is ONLY allowed on a Route Keepout shape. if I try and add this to a copper shape I get an error at the command line....

    Ok thanks. The software should remove those that cannot be set instead of telling you to set it to blank and then have an error in the command line. I missed the command line response.
