That doesn't make sense. Iterated instances have always been specified as and [N:1] doesn't mean anything in Virtuoso (CDB or OA). m-factors also would be the same provided that the PDK is the same. So...

Thank you Andrew for your reply. I didn't explain it in the best manner. Currently, the user selects two nets (before loading anything). They click on the toolbar icon, and the form initializes with...
