    Hi All,
    I wrote a skill code to array pcells with db_id=dbcreateinstance
    (...........) function and modify their Width and length parameters by
    using

    db_id~>l and
    db_id~>w.

    db_id is the database id of the object created,

    by this i am able to change the length / width parameters of the pcell
    in layout. but when i do a 'Q' ( properties) for the pcell i see that
    the W parameter has got updated to the value that i have given from
    ciw,but the 'total width' property stiill points the defaut value.

    is there some way to vary the total width parameter ....?

    can anyone help me in this regard..


    thanks in advance.

    May I add : triggering the CDF callback is not *absolutely* necessary, as long as you set correct
    values for the parameters.

    In your case you just have to find out what's the name of the "Total Width" parameter. For this you
    go to CIW->Tools->CDF->Edit and look at the parameters defined in the CDF of your pcell.




    Cheers,
    Stéphane
