Automatically placement of PINS on NETS

Hello,


When generating/updating PINS in VXL it typically places them near the 0,0 coordinates as one group. I have a large block with many PINS, all grouped near 0,0 coordinates. I am interested to automatically place them on objects with the same layer and NET name. These PINS do not need to be on EDGES but on polygons with the same NET name. The skill script will take all selected PINS and move them to the matched path/rectangle/polygon with the same NET name.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Danny

    With all permission, one more question please. Currently the script moves floating PINS onto instances pins/terminals. What if I would like to move floating PINS to shapes (rectangles, paths, polygons) with the same net name. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
