Hi.... This is KT PARK in Korea. 

Do you have any SKILL Command or code 

to determine a point is inside of a polygon or outside at Virtuoso Layout Suit?

 

 dbLayerInside or dbLayerOutside does not help.... T_T

    You could use the leIsPointInsideFig() - this will determine whether a specified point is inside the figure represented by a database object (so a polygon, rectangle, path etc). Or another approach would be to use the CCSpointInPolygon() function defined in my solution 11024326 (note that the full solution is a bit superflous now because it's a built-in feature in IC615, but it's useful as an exercise in seeing how it was done before it became available).This function is useful if you have a polygon represented by a list of points rather than an actual database object.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
