Need a Skill code to get a list of elements under a plygonal shape.

I am looking for a comand in skill to get the list of elements under a polygonal shape.

There is a command

 

dbgetTrueOverlaps(
d_cellView
l_bBox
)

 here the output of this command is a list of elements. But this command only takes the input as a list of two points.

 I want to give a list of more number of points as input to the code and the output it will return a list of elements under the polygon formed by the list of input points.

If anybody knows how to get it done please repply.

Regards,

Amit

    Derek ,

    Acually I want to get the dbID of last placed object in the layout.I intentionally used lehiCreatePolygon command (whhich does not return any dbid). 

    I can not use dbcreatePolygon command because I want to create the polygon using human interface  after that I will check the points of that polygon.

    and in enterPolygon command also I need to give the list of points as an argument.

     

    Thanks & Regards,

    Amit
