SKILL: Need to detect Duplicate Coincident Instances in Hierarchy

EdwardDodge

Hi Guys,

I've been using leSearchHierarchy to find duplicate coincident instances (instances overlaid on top of each other). Of course this command only gives a list of candidates. And for level-0 instances the job is easy: just compare if inst1~>transform & inst2~>transform are the same.

However, transform information is *relative* to the instance's level of hierarchy. How would I transform the transform info from instances lower down the hierarchy to make them directly comparable to the same transform from instances at level-0?

Thanks ahead of time,

Edward

  • I think I understand what you want. I dont know of a function or an easy why of comparing overlaps or overlays.

    Maybe to keep the data from grow too big, you might want to divide the top level in segments.

    You dont need to compare opposite side instances.

    I would use dbConcatTransform get the transform from top level.

    Sorry I could give an easier answer.
