When create Pins in the do the layout in virtuoso layout, I forget to set the "Display Terminal Name".
Now after I finish the layout, is there anyway I can choose to display the terminal name?
I cannot see the terminal name anyway!
Thanks,
Qingbo
 

Without having currently access to Virtuoso, I just remember the following -- don't know if it really works like this:

1. Select all these terminals
2. Hit "q" (query)
3. Change the "only current" field into "all selected"
4. Click "Display Pin Name" to display pin names.
 
erikl,
Thanks for your help!
However, it is a big layout and there are 10s terminals.
Someone else do the previous work. It's hard for me to find the position of all the terminals. Is there any way to change this without select all the terminals or if there is a way to easily select all the terminals without clicking on each one?
Thanks,
 

If I remember well, in the LSW you can limit the object selectability to terminals only.

Or by skill commands (enter into the CIW):
Code:
leSetAllObjectsSelectable( nil [I]myTechFile[/I] ) # nothing selectable ; [I]myTechFile[/I] is your technology file
leSetPinSelectable( t [I]myTechFile[/I] )          # make pins (terminals) selectable

Then select all: "Ctrl<Key>a" or "geSelectAllFig()"
