Pin rename

psill000
psill000 over 11 years ago

I have a script that places the pin in the appropiate place according to the lower pin place.

When I bring the pins in through VXL the pins are rectangle and the pin in the lower cell is a polygon. The script creates a polygon pin in the correct place, but I would like to keep the original pin name. I delete the original pin then try to rename to the old pin, but I get the error the original pin name already exists.

How do I purge the original name so I can rename the new pin name to the old?
