    Generates a layout from a specified schematic cellview. If you do not specify the layout library, cell, and view names, the layout view is created with the same name as the schematic cell. If you do not specify the physConfig library, cell and view names, the layout view is created with the same name as the layout cell with physConfig as the default physConfigView. If you use the optional arguments, they override the existing environment variables set in your .cdsenv file.
