Getting schematic instances from multiple open schematics

shajujan

Hi,
 
I want write a skill routine that lets the user interactively select instances from multiple schematics & get those instance names. I tried geAddSelectPoint(), but that will prompt the user to select instances only from the current cellview. I tried dbGetOpenCellViews(), but that will get me all the open cellviews in memory including the ones not open currently.
 
Any ideas on how to get started will be much appreciated.
 
Thanks,
Shaju

    Yes, but it requires the test design to have been opened in a tab first, because it doesn't tie up the design with the ADE session id otherwise.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
