Obtaining " gm " value of a mos in cadence virtuoso

In order to obtain gm value of a mos for hand calculations of capacitance etc,
1) Perform dc analysis ( simple dc analysis).
2) Use " direct plot " if the conventional method of dc analysis takes too much time (as it did in my case).
3) Analog simulation envt->results
4) Select the option that gives you transistor parameters

4) Right click on gm. Select table and you will obtain the gm of the desired mosfet :)
