How to flatten cell in non-graph mode

sparksu

 I want to flatten a hierarchial layout cell.

leHiFlatten() can do this in graph mode.

But compared to leHiFlatten(), it is extremely slow to do this by using dbFlatInst() in non-graph mode.

Is there an alternative way to flatten a database in non-graph mode?

Thanks.

    You are right, Andrew.

    Traversing objs did not make my code slow.

     length(objs)=>480

     

    I compared the following codes:

    ;Code A

    ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    foreach(obj objs

    when(obj->objType=="inst" dbFlattenInst(obj 32 t) )

    ;end foreach

    ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ;Code B

    ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    foreach(obj objs

    when(obj->objType=="inst" dbFlattenInst(obj 32 t nil t) ) ;preserveRODobjs

    );end foreach

    ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------

     

    Code A cost 120 seconds.

    Code B is too slow to be finished. I waited about 0.5 hours and then killed it manually.

    I think it is the argument "preserveRODobjs" who made my code slow.
