Pre-save trigger for layout

skillvt

Hi 

I want to intercept layout save event and run a piece of SKILL code. Idea is to perform some checks on layout, if layout does not meet requirement  save operation will not be performed.

I am performing above mentioned in schematic using schRegPostCheckTrigger. We have multiple projects using both IC5141 and IC614.

Thanks

    dbRegSaveTrigger is what you want.

    No. You have dbRegPostSaveTrigger in IC5141 so you can do something after it was saved, but not before.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
