How to increase X axis and Y axis limit in layout

FormerMember
FormerMember

HI all,

          While creating layouts I am getting the following error

\w *WARNING* (DB-270547): The coordinate 2.14907e+09 is over the max 2.14748e+09 and 2.14748e+09 is used. . I am not able to place any instances beyond that limit  Is there any option to increase the limit of the coordinates.

I tried using envSetVal("layout" "checkLargeCoordinates" 'boolean nil)

I am using Cadnece Virtuoso 6.1.7-64b .

Regards

Lakshmisha KC

    We have seen the same message. However we are only trying to open to view a layout. The whole virtuoso session hangs and the log file shows the following,

    \# Memory report: using       5,758 MB, process size 6,761 MB at UTC 2019.06.18 20:13:06.424

    And it keeps increasing.

    Other layout in the same library opens fine.

    I'm not sure the message is related to the memory growth. Without seeing the data (e.g. via customer support) it's rather hard to tell. I suggest you do that (contact customer support)

    In the meantime, you could check your data using:

    oaScan -lib libName -cell cellName -view viewName

    It turns out, one of the cell 6 levels down in hierarchy is somehow corrupted. oaScan says ArrayInst has inverted bBox. I used osScan to repair the cellview and the problem went away.

    Thanks, Andrew.
