checkParamsOnly

layoutXL checkParamsOnly boolean { t | nil }

Description

Specifies whether the Check Against Source, Update Layout Parameters, and Update Schematic Parameters commands consider CDF parameters only or CDF parameters and cellview properties when comparing values in schematic and layout.

• When set to t, the commands check only CDF parameters in the schematic against the parameters and properties in the layout.
• When set to nil, the commands check both CDF parameters and cellview properties in the schematic against parameters and properties in the layout. Use this setting to check or update user-defined properties in the layout and schematic or when you know that a particular instance has certain properties that you are interested in comparing or updating.

In both cases, the commands then report (or update) values that do not match, parameters that cannot be checked, and parameters that are missing from the layout view.

The default is nil.
