how to select and deselect a layer using only one bind key?

IC Layout

 Hello! Everybody, GoodEvening to all,

Please, can anybody help me in giving the solution for this question. 

I am using cadence IC514 version.

I would like to select a layer using one bind key also it should deselect the same layer if I press the same bind key.

Thanks in advance...

  • Here is the newer version of the code, version 1.2:

    procedure(CCStoggleLayerSel()
  let( (cv layer purpose lpp shapes)
    ;; obtain the current cellview
    cv = geGetEditCellView()
    layer = car(leGetEntryLayer())
    purpose = cadr(leGetEntryLayer())
    ;; find the layer-purpose pair object for the current entry layer
    lpp = car(setof(lpp cv~>lpps lpp~>layerName==layer &&
                    lpp~>purpose==purpose))
    ;; get all of the shapes on the current lpp object
    shapes = lpp~>shapes
    ;; if at least one shape is even partially selected, then deselect
    ;; all the shapes on that layer, otherwise select all the shapes on
    ;; that layer
    if( exists(shape shapes geIsFigSelected(shape))
      ;; there is no "geDeselectFigs()" function, so instead,
      ;; iterate over the shapes, deselect each shape in turn
      mapc('geDeselectFig shapes)
      ;; ELSE select all of the shapes in one go
      geSelectFigs(shapes)
    ); if
  ); let
); procedure CCStoggleLayerSel

    As Ted pointed out, this will be much more efficient - evident when there are many shapes.

    I hope that this helps everyone! (This will be posted as a solution on SourceLink too.)
