    floaters=setof(net cvId~>nets !(net~>instTerms || net~>term))
    foreach(floater floaters
      foreach(fig floater~>figs dbDeleteObject(fig))
      dbDeleteObject(floater)
    )

    Should do it. cvId is the database Id of the cellView you're cleaning up.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    If the layout was done with Virtuoso Layout Suite XL (and has connectivity), then I think the code above should work for layout too.

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    That's not going to be easy then. I don't have any code to do that - you'd either need to write code to do shape chasing to determine whether anything is connected, or extract it using VLS XL functionality.
