 hi all,

1) i know the syntax for two input AND gate in layout as shown below.

leLayerAnd(  cv     list("prBoundary"   "drawing")     list("NWELL"   "drawing" )  list("PWELL"    "drawing"))

  But i need more than 2 i/p AND gate syntax

  Let me know how to write it in skill.

    You'd just need to call leLayerAnd twice:

    leLayerAnd(cv layer1 layer2 tmpLayer)
    leLayerAnd(cv tmpLayer layer3 resultLayer)

    And then you'll probably want to delete all the shapes on your temporary working layer. Often using layers such as y0-y9 are used for this kind of thing. It would be easy enough to write a wrapper around the leLayerAnd function which allowed you to do it for 3 layers (or even as many as you like, by breaking it down into pairwise steps and cleaning up the intermediate working layers as you go).
