How to copy cells and still keep their relative position?

Renee

Hi,

 I had a problem with copy function:

I want to copy certain cells in a cellview to another cellview, but I still want to keep relative position of these cell. How can I do that?

I tried to use dbCopyFig function, but it only works for figures, not cells.

 Thanks in advance!

    Yes, as I've said previously. To get to the mosaics themselves, you need to iterate over cvId~>mosaics - this will find the "mosaic" objects. Since the selected set can contain shapes, mosaics, instances (and in IC61 a few other object types) you need to look in several places in the database to find them.

    You cannot (to repeat again) copy mosaicInst objects because these are the things being arrayed rather than the array itself. Effectively they are instantiated _within_ the mosaic.
