Error using leSearchHierarchy()

LeJonT

Hi,

I am trying to use leSearchHierarchy() function to list all labels in a layout. Code below:

cellView = dbOpenCellViewByType( libName topCellName "layout" )
labelsInLayout = leSearchHierarchy( cellView cellView~>bBox 32 "label" list( ) )

But, instead of all labels hierarchically, it is listing the labels in Top View only.

Strange thing is, if I open the Top Layout using the editor and run the code again, it is listing all the lables in all levels. Same way, it is lisiting all the layers once the layout is closed too.

What can be the possible reason for this strange behaviour? Am I missing something? (I am using ic5.1.41)

 

-Thanks and Regards,

Leo

  • Hey,

    thanks for all the hints. cdnshelp seems to be broken in my installation. I will figure out that later :-)

    I found the documentation in the Layout SKILL Functions Reference as LeJonT pointed out. 

    Another good solution to my problem is using the binary "cdsFinder" as I discovered some days ago.

     

    Happy Layouting ;-)
