Can't add pin db object to a figure group?

MatthewLove

I'm generating a PCell and when I create the pin objects with leCreatePin(), I can't add the db object to my figure group.

I get the following error: *Error* dbAddFigToFigGroup: Invalid figure - db:0x1442af9b

As you can see, the function does return a db object so it's quite odd.

Any ideas?

    Thanks for the reply Andrew.

    That's fair enough, I forgot about that restriction on the PCells.

    I'll just place a label at the desired locations instead and get the user to place the pins manually at the top level.
