Hello:

when I worked  in IC61 with the bindkey to flatten a  layout cell ,I  found that  the contact or via in the layout cell

was missing after it was flatten.

How could I solve this problem? would anyone give some solutions or ideas?

thanks!!

    I've never seen this problem before. So some questions:

    1. Which version are you using (6.1 is rather vague - that covers 9 years of releases - so please give the exact subVersion as given in the Help->About menus)?
    2. There's no standard bindkey for flatten - so can you use Options->Log Filter in the CIW and turn on "Accelerated input (menu and bindkey commands...") and then hit the bindkey in the layout and report the name of the function that shows up in the CIW when you do this?

    Thanks,

    Andrew.
