Script for finding same Metal type Shape Overlapping a Trace

RFStuff

Dear All,

I want to find whether same metal type shape  is overlapping another shape of the same metal.

If it is overlapping, then the overlap area should blink.

Basically this I need for finding SHORT with undesired trace.

For example: I have a trace ( may be a Rectangle/Path). I select this. Then an enabled SKILL script should find a same metal type shape overlapping with the trace and highligting the overlapped area with the trace.

Can anybody show me some light  for this.

Kind Regards,
