VXL layout links to schematic

Dear All,

As I am concerned I have not seen this point answered yet or I may not ask the correct question in the forum search.

Using VXL flow, I am selecting a couple of ports in the layout and of course the corresponding selected ports are selected in the schematic. I am able to grab the list of selected instance from the open layout window but in the same script I am not able to see how I could link to the corresponding schematic window in order to grap the selected instances list.

Is there a way after selected the layout ID window to also find the corresponding schematic ID window (VXL)?

Best regards,

Fabian

Hi Fabian

Are you looking for this function?

srcID=lxGetLXInfo("srcView" layoutID)

Best regards

Thanks Quek.
This was exactly what I was looking for. I looked in startFinder() but can not find the proper description to find the common. May you give me your tips to find this common or is it purely experiences?

Hi Fabian

Actually I don't use the finder because it gives too little information. I always use the pdf files of the appropriate documentations. For this case, actually I know the function so I guess it is from experience. : )

Best regards

Fabian,

Also you can search for the function name in cdnshelp. The finder is only intended to be a short one line reminder of the name, arguments, and return value - the full documentation is in cdnshelp.

Regards,

Andrew
