Help with skill code to convert pin labels to pin textdisplays

pham777

Hi,

Pins in VXL are created with create label option as "Label" instead of "Text Display".  I wonder if there is a skill code to covert all pin "Label" back to pin "TextDisplay".

I am using cadence IC615

Thanks a lot,

    Hi Lawrence,

    There is one skil code to convert pin textdisplays to pin labels which I found on Cadence Online Help archive as follows:

    /*******************************************************************************

    ;
    ;**************CCSreplaceTextDisplay.il*****************************************
    ;
    procedure(CCSreplaceTextDisplay()
    let((cv labelId)
    cv = geGetEditCellView()
    foreach( shape cv~>shapes
    when( shape~>objType=="textDisplay"
    printf("Found textDisplay %s %L at %L\n" shape~>owner~>name shape~>lpp shape~>xy)
    labelId=dbCreateLabel(cv
    shape~>lpp
    shape~>xy
    shape~>owner~>name
    shape~>justify
    shape~>orient
    shape~>font
    shape~>height
    ); dbCreateLabel
    leAttachFig(labelId shape~>parent)
    dbDeleteObject(shape)
    ); when
    ); foreach
    ); let
    ); procedure

    I'm not sure how to do the other way around (from pin labels to pin textdisplays)

    regards,
