How to lock the cell placement

bharath2k4er

Hi, 

can someone help in locking the placement of the Instance (should not be able to move the instance once i lock the position) in the virtuoso layout editor using skill..

It is equvivalent to this command SET_OBJECT_FIXED_EDIT(GET_SELECTION) 1 (1 means postion fixed, 0 means postion is notfixed).This command is available in the IC compiler (ICC tool). 

 

Thanks for your support,

Bharath.

    Thanks Derek .

    When i load the script, i got the following warning message. Should i need to  define the myFilterFunction? 

     *WARNING* Can't find skill filter function 'myFilterFunction'.

    I am expecting something like this,

    --> When i load my script it should find all the  instances

    -->It should lock the position of all the instances 

    -->If somebody tries to move the locked instances, it should pop up a warning message saying "Instance position is locked,Please unlock it to move"

    -->I should be able to unlock selected instances if necessary.

     

     
    Thanks,
