Questions about object selection in layout

MarkNing

Hi All,

I'm new to SKILL and I would like to move some objects (or shapes) in layout cellview by SKILL automatically. I have got all the points inside each object (or shape). I use foreach(point points geAddSelectPoint(winId nil point) obj=car(geGetSelectedSet()) dbMoveFig(obj nil list(x:y "R0" 1.0)))  loop function in order to select each object and move it. Sometimes all the points can be recognized and all the objects can be moved accordingly. But, often times, a few points can not be recognized (these points were ignored by the SKILL procedure) and the corresponding objects (or shapes) can not be selected and moved.  It seems it is related to the cellview update. I didn't know what happened. Can anyone help me? 

I'm using the IC6.1.5.

Thanks for your help.
Best Regards,

Mark

  • Hi Lawrence,
    Thank you Lawrence!
    The gePointToFig() did solve my problems perfectly! But i still wonder why the geAddSelectPoint() and geGetSelectedSet() cannot get the target object(sometimes)? The coordinates pointed to geAddSelectPoint() was indeed inside the flattened object(or shape). I'm puzzled.
    Anyway, thanks for your help!
