finding instances from selected objects

I have a requirement that i have selected some objects. I want to filter instances only from the selected set of objects.

setof(obj geGetSelSet() obj~>objType=="inst")

You can also filter for male instances like this:
setof(obj geGetSelSet() heIsInstObject(obj))

heIsInstObject is also a private function. It's part of the hierarchy editor functionality, so do not use it in your code as it may be changed or removed without notice.
The method I gave earlier should work fine. If you want to distinguish those which are not pins, also check the purpose attribute, so do:
setof(obj geGetSelSet() obj~>objType=="inst" && obj~>purpose=="cell")
Regards,
Andrew.

Ah, I was wondering what the "he" stood for!
