    Hi Sailesh,

    Since you managed to get the layer. it will be easy for you to replace the metal layers.

    Example of changing a selected shapes from M1 to M2 on current cell view:

    selected_obj = geGetSelectedSet()

    foreach( obj selected_obj

        when( obj_id~>layerName == "M1"

            obj_id~>lpp = list("M2" "drawing")

        );when

    );foreach

     This is just an example to show you a simple way in changing the layer. You may write a routine for this. Happy coding.

    Regards,

    How
