Hi,

I was trying to export layout view into a .bnp file using skill function :

 

Lib="TEST_lib"

cellname="TEST_CELL"


wi=geOpen( ?lib Lib ?cell cellname ?view "layout" ?viewType "maskLayout" ?mode "r")

hiExportImage(?fileName cellname)

but it is flagging following error while executing the command in a stretch.

*Error* _hiExportImage: Unable to allocate image of size (1010851,1621501) 

Its working fine when loading line by line.

Can any one please help?

    Aaron,

    There's already a link at the bottom of that solution to another solution which uses hiGenerateThumbnails - which is probably an even easier way of doing it...

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
