Dropping via at current location!!

bharath006

Hi,

   I am trying to drop a via with 1X2 (row,column) at the mouse pointed location. To start with I have written this code .

procedure(dropvia()
cv=hiGetCurrentWindow()
cvid=geGetEditCellView()
pt=geWindowToEditPoint(cv hiGetPoint(cv))
dbCreateRect(cvid list("VIA "drawing") list(car(pt)-0.03:cadr(pt)-0.03 car(pt)+0.03:cadr(pt)+0.03))
)

Later I realised that, this is not  I am looking for. I wanted to create a via, the one similar to leHiCreateVia() which opens a form and we enter the values.

I tried with dbCreateInst and select the appropriate instance like M2_M1. But is there a way to create via to the one similar to leHiCreateVia() form??

Please give me a appropriate command to plug in my code.

In case, If there is way a to get above one, how do we return the name of the via definition (eg:M1_M2,M2_M3), so that I can pass this name to change it to next level via. Say I will select M1_M2 and press a key to change it to M2_M3

Thanks,

Bharath

  • In IC615 (assuming you're still talking about IC615 and are not flipping back and forth between versions from your other questions), you need to use dbCreateVia. There are numerous posts on this in these forums - try searching for dbCreateVia (at a guess).
