Descending into a specific instance using Virtuoso Edit-In-Place

DannyRitt

Hello,


At a TOP level layout block there are many instances that overlaps each other. Sometimes it can get tricky to select a specific cell and Edit In Place into it. I am looking for a SKILL script to click anywhere on the TOP level, it will pop a window with the instances names underneath. Upon selecting the instance, it will Edit-In-Place into it.

Any directions or tips are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Danny

  • The script that I posted already works, the only issue that I have is how to EIP using the command:

    leEditInPlace( hiGetCurrentWindow() list(list(cv~>geGetWindowCellView() 0 0 0) list(selectiveEIPForm->viewInsts->value 0 1 2) ) )
                  
    This command somehow doesn't EIP.

    The script already successfully identifying all instances and load them into the ListBox. Now, per the user's selection it should simply EIP to teh selected instance...

    Thanks,
