Short locator between 2 nets.

 Hi Friends

               I am trying to find short between 2 nets (Eg: VDD & VSS). I created the GUI in that we can feed the value of net name as in the layout. But l want to zoom to the shorted co-ordinates as a result . Even if its shorted in 1 or more locations I need to record those co-ordinates and zoom in to it.

 I was trying with the bbox but i could not end up with solution. Please i need some suggestion on this.

     Yes. I got the pins in the layout. As per (EG. I got VDD pin & VSS pin in metal1).

    I am not using any tools such as assura for finding shorts. By the pins we can regonize the nets which its corresponds too. Then if both the nets are overlapping we can zoom to the overlapped location. This is a over all idea. Any comments.
