Cadence HDL symbol wizard pin spacing/length?

ckhalleran

New to Cadence HDL DE. With the symbol wizard, I'm getting pins that are .200" long and .200" centers (compared to other symbols in library that are .100" & .100"). Any suggestions what to check?

My symbol grid is set at .050 with multiple = 2 (if that is considered by the symbol wizard). Is there some template that I'd have to import in the midst of making a symbol?

Also,wondering about the cursor coordinates that appear in lower right corner of screen (in parenthesis). If you go by those coordinates, it would appear that symbols that have .100" spacing actually have .050" spacing.

Thanks,
Chris

    I copied the PDV section from the CPM file of a coworker's project... and now the wizard is giving me 100 center's and length. Wonder how mine got changed? Also wonder about the cursor coords in parenthesis. Thanks, Chris
