Whenever I did not have Viewall() in the Cadence Virtuoso layout editor, I could not see the note text in Cadence Composer schematic editor. Every time it happened, I had to open the layout editor, hit the Viewall() command, then, went back to schematic editor to see all the note texts. Is there any way to make note texts visible in the schematic editor even I did not view all the layers in the layout editor (either in the currently opened layout editor or the previously closed layout editor)?
Thanks.
 

Suggestion: Look up the Viewall() command syntax in your cds.log file, then bind this command to a schematic bindkey.
 

Thanks, erikl.
Your suggestion works like a charm. It solves the problem that dogged me in the last few years. I modified my .cdsinit file and basically changed from hiSetBindKey("Layout" ---) to hiSetBindKey("Schematics" ---) for Viewall() command. Now, even I only view a few layers in the layout editor, I am able to see note texts in the schematic editor.
Thanks.
 

Congratulations! This was even more simple. Thanks for reporting back!
