    Hi Roi,

    This isn't (as far as I know) possible. You can find all the probes with geGetAllProbe(), and then for each probe you can look at probeId~>objectId which will return the net object (if it's a probed net).

    You can then do probeId~>objectId~>figs to find all the figures on that net, but this will only be in the cellView containing the net object, so it won't traverse the hierarchy - assuming that's what you want. If you don't need it to traverse hierarchy, maybe this is sufficient for your needs.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
