How to assign the multiplicity factor a pPar() parameter ?

$

Hello everyone,

I want to apply a multiplicity factor to a cell (for simulation only) that should Inherit the m-factor from a parent parameter.
Thus I have added an "m" parameter to the cell and gave it the value: pPar("HSIZE").
When running the simulation, I get the error: "The value for the multiplicity factor `m' should evaluate to a number."

Looking at the produced netlist, for some reason the netlister took the pPar("HSIZE") literally instead as a parameter and placed it directly into the netlist (instead of using an actual parameter like usual [_par0 etc]).

I'm pretty sure I have done this before without any issues.

Is there any solution for this ? or workaround ? (I would like to avoid using "global" parameters)
