use the display command to reduce the text size display .5 will reduce
it half of what you see.....I think there is some
sort of setup command in the startup that defines the size of the pin
number when you section the part but Im not sure
what it is. Might want to use the help command for display to see the
different choices you can have.
As far as the symbol I dont think that you'll be able to add the pin
numbers at the symbol creation as they are derived
from the chips part file

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Schematic Symbol (Part) Question
Good afternoon fellow designers,
Folks I have a couple schematic symbol (or Part as Cadence calls them)
questions:
1: Below is a screen shot of a symbol I am in the process of creating.
See how the pin signal name appears both inside and outside the outline
- is there any way to see the Pin Number on the outside of the outline
instead of the signal name? I would prefer to see the symbol in the
editor as it will look in the schematic.
2: Below is a screen shot of the same symbol inserted into a schematic
page. The pin numbers are now visible (as I would have wanted to the
symbol to be), but the problem I am having now is that the Pin Number
text size is too large and overlapping each other. Would you happen to
know how to reduce the text size of the Pin Numbers.
Thanks in advance to all for your appreciative help.
