Can I draw a reference line in virtuoso?

richardyuan

I mean a reference line that do not use drawing layer and do not stream out to GDS, just a line for reference.

The ruler is OK, but I don't like the numbers and segments, I just want a pure line.

Is there any skill function to do that?

Example of a enter function to prompt you to enter two points,
and then to create a marker as the result. Might want to use:

pteSetVisible("Markers" t "Objects")

to ensure they are visible.

Call CCFenterRefLine() to prompt the user to create the marker line.
