Boundary’s coordinates

Hi friends:

I want to know is it possible to get the Boundary’s coordinates of a cell.

How to get this.

Thanks

    All,

    I'm looking to get the outline of all instances and shapes in a cellview, akin to a shrink wrapped boundary, to create a metal fill keepout halo around the block.

    The only way I can see to do this at the moment is flatten everything, convert all shapes to a common layer, and merge.

    Is there another means of doing this, ie a command that would give the coordinates of the outline?

    Thanks
