How to change via level with skill in IC6

Eric L14

 In IC6, I have a bindkey which change via level (via1 to via2) . Main part of the code is:

; Current selected via
viaToBeChanged=car(geGetSelSet())

; new via identifier
newVia=dbOpenCellViewByType( technName viaName "layout" nil "r")
if( newVia then
  viaToBeChanged~>master=newVia
)

Do you know how doing the same thing in IC6 ?

Thanks in advance

Eric

     The non default parameter values are stored on the via header for that instance:

    instId~>viaHeader~>overrideParams

    The default parameter values have to be  extracted from the viaDef

    instId~>viaHeader~>viaDef~>params
