Is there any tool to show what are inside a prop.xx file?

    It's hard to figure out what have been set for a cell from the UI.

  2. In the library manager, middle mouse ->edit properties or view properties over
    the library (gives you library prop.xx), cell (gives you cell prop.xx) or view
    (gives you view prop.xx)

    That's fairly easy...

    Thanks. The Cadence UI is quite unfriendly, showing a several kilo byte
    long string in such a short single line text field, :)

    'cdfDump' may be your friend ...

  5. From this comment, I assume you're talking about looking at the cdfData
    property. That's about the only lengthy Cadence-generated property - others
    would tend to be generated by non-Cadence apps, perhaps.

    If it is CDF, then you should use Tools->CDF->Edit from the CIW. That shows
    the CDF data split up into its component parts.

    Or you could use the cdfDump() SKILL function to dump it to an ASCII
    representation of the SKILL needed to create it.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
