cloning group

Hi.

How can I clone a group in layout?

I can create instance and place them at several places in layout. When I modify one instance, all other identical instances will change at the same time.. But I dont want to create instance, I'd like to use group instead and clone it .. 

 Thanks for your help

Howard

    Howard,

    If using VLS XL you can do a "synchronous" copy (as an alternative to a synchronous clone) - this can create a copy of the original transistors and interconnect, and put both the original and copy into figGroups which are treated as synchronous - so an edit to one also edits the other.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
