extract connectivity using skill

posh
posh over 15 years ago

Hi all,

I am a new Skill User, iam trying to write a code for extracting a net from one cellview and put it into a different cellview (only the extracted net). i have read some previous threads but most of them were pointed to VXL. i do not have a VXL licence. so can anyone hint me how to extract a net using skill in VLE.

 

thanks

Harish Poshala

    Yes, thank you Derek - I did read through the linked post but I forgot to mention about fracturing any input polygons in my post above. The suggested algorithm is one from my head and not proven by any actual coding!  dbGetOverlaps can indeed produce overlaps where the bounding boxes of shapes overlap but the actual shapes do not - dbGetTrueOverlaps might help but it might also be too much of an overhead (it will be slower since it is a less simplistic function).

    Harish, do pay attention to Derek's comments since he has written functional code on this topic and I have not.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
