Not able to open a layout view (Virtuoso has a blocking dialog displayed)

Hi,

When I try to open a layout, it doesn't open rather prints this in CIW.

*WARNING* ddsServOpen: Cannot complete open request from library manager because Virtuoso has a blocking dialog displayed.

I tried searching in the forum but can't find anything related to this. Any help?

Regards,

Amar

    It's because you have a blocking dialog box displayed by the main virtuoso window (the message is pretty clear). Close that, and then it will work.
