[SOLVED] Shape magnification in OA

Hi!

As I understand magnification function is now not supported in Layout suite. Is there any other way to magnify shapes in OA? May be some workaround? 

Thanks in advance.

Solution: You need to transform shapes into Pcell and then place them with reqired mag.

    Hi MayskiyJuk

    You can try dbCreateXformPCell as described in solution 11552600. A layout can also be magnified using "XScale" cmd in a terminal window.

    Best regards
    Quek
