skill code to place all layout cells in a Virtuoso lib to top level cell

Hi

I would like to instantiate all layout cells in a lib to newly created top cell and run DRC on all cells at the same time. Each layout cell cannot be overlapped in the top cell.

Does anyone have SKILL code or similar code to achieve this goal ?

Thanks,

ManChak

    The code doesn't need updating. It works as-is (i.e. as posted back in 2017), and I gave an example of how to do this in batch mode in my last reply. The code was already designed to be used either with an interactive window, or a specified cellView id.

    Andrew.
