How to raise the schematic window by SKILL ?

 Hi All,

How can I raise the schematic window if it is iconified or if 

the schematic window is placed behind other windows, by using SKILL?

Because, during layout designing, it is difficult to find the schematic window,

if many windows exist.  I'm using icfb version 5.10.41.500.5.109 . 

Any help are appreciated. 

 

Regards, 

Marbs

    Hi Marbs,

    I think that this solution will only work if the schematic cellview happened to be the current cellview window. Since there can be only one current cellview window, I would expect it to be another window, other than the hidden or iconified schematic that you are trying to pop up.  In other words, if the schematic window is "buried" or iconified and you are working with layout or other graphical windows, one of these will likely be current which would render the above code functionally incorrect (it won't specifically raise the schematic, just whichever window is current).

    Good luck looking at my suggestion, I think it will better solve the problem.

    Regards,

    Lawrence.
