Fast access to hierarchy shapes

Slawa

Hello


How quickly to get access to shapes being deeply in hierarchy of design (or design areas). Now I use such algorithm:

inst_area=dbProduceOverlapInst(dbDes list(list(box_x1 box_y1) list(box_x2 box_y2)))
foreach(inst inst_area
dbFlattenInst(inst 10))
all_shapes=dbGetOverlaps(dbDes list(list(box_x1 box_y1) list(box_x2 box_y2)))

  But probably there should be faster mode. Flattening of each instance separately in the big project causes huge losses of time

Regards,

Slawa

    Hi Ted,

    Is there a way to get only id of instances and mosiacs (no layers) hierarchial which can be processed further?

    P:S :  similar to summary but hierarchial data (0:32)

     

    Thanks
