How do you generate a layout from schematic in Virtuoso IC 6.1.5?

ernie123

I know how to generate a layout from schematic in icfb (IC 5.1) using the Tools -> Design Synthesis menu in the Schematics XL window.

Unfortunately this menu does not seem to exist in the newer version of Schematics XL (IC 6.1.5), and I cannot find any explanation on how to do this after searching online (all tutorials I found talk about the old version).

Can anyone help?

Thank you

    You didn't say which version you're using now, but most likely it's Launch->Layout XL (rather then Tools->Design Synthesis->Layout XL as it was in the IC5141 release - which is pretty old - it came out 14 years ago...)

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Sorry I meant version IC 6.1.5 (I wrote it in the title but I should have probably also written it in the question details as well).

    Er, whoops. I clearly need a holiday - didn't see that. My answer is correct though for IC6.1.5 as well as later versions.
