Find the metal polygons having a pin

shazzy

I have some metal polygons in an instance and that is called in some other other celllview on which the pins are placed.

 

I want to find only those the metal polygons which have pin label over them. 

 

I have written a code wherein the polygon is broken into rects and then pins are searched in  the rects so created, but that process involves a lot of loops thus being tedious and memory hungry. Also, checking net or pin properties of the metal ain't working.

 

Could you please share any new code ideas wherein the desired metal polygons can be found

    Hi Andrew

     

    The above problem is a part of the big page code which I'm writing. 

     

    In that we have to find the metals intersecting the prBoundary ( that's simple and done )

    For those metals we have to check whether they have a pin or not 

     

    I got your idea to find the pins and then select the figures beneath it but shall we think the other way round that if we have the metals then how to check the whether the pin is on it or not
