Sandy,
The Import-CDL route does not create an editable schematic. The resulting cellView contains all the instances and connectivity (i.e. the logical information), but not physical information.
It's netlistable, but not editable as a schematic.
There's an enhancement under way to produce a real schematic from the imported data as part of the CDL import - and also to provide greater control (greater than none, that is) over the mapping of devices.
Currently we have a couple of services solutions available if you need something now - which can create an editable (yet perhaps not terribly pretty) schematic and take care of mapping of transistors to a particular design kit.
It _can_ be made to work, but usually requires some effort (and often SKILL code) to be truly successful with it as it stands right now.
Regards,
Andrew.
