Export Image

 Hi,

 I'm runing an skill code which generates all layouts automatically and I would like to export an image of each layout. I am using the comman:

 

deOpenCellView( libName cell "layout" "maskLayout" wid "r")

hiExportImage(?fileName imagePath ?bBox list(llx:lly urx:ury) ?width  nwpix ?window wid)

 which if I am bit wrong generates an image of the layout that is opened in a windows wid.

 My question is if there's a way to generate the image without opening the window. Since I'm actually taking several images, opening the windows is time consuming.

 Thanks in advance for your help

    Many thanks for your help again,

    Now I'm able to create the images without opening the windowsin the graphics mode. I think that my code wasn't working since I was calling the  deOpenCellView before the wid->neverCurrentWindow statement.

     Sorry for answering you back that late, but I was trying to apply the Calibre drc and lvs through an SKILL script and I did no have time to check your answer about the image

     Thanks!!!

    best regards

     Sergio
