how to add txt and pin to every layout in a lib

Hi Nhumai,

The main issue is that you are calling the design() function in your code at the top, and this is the OCEAN function to specify the design to be used in netlisting/simulation. It does not open the design and certainly does not mean that geGetEditCellView() (which you're calling in the addtxt function) will pick up the design since that returns the cellView open in the current window (and design does not open any window).

What you should do is replace the call to design as follows:

lib=ddGetObj("sc12tps_v1_test")
foreach(cell lib~>cells
  when(ddGetObj(lib~>name cell~>name "layout")
    cv=dbOpenCellViewByType(lib~>name cell~>name "layout" "maskLayout" "a")
    when(cv
      addtxt(cv)
    )
  )
)

and change the top of the addtxt function as follows:

procedure(addtxt(@optional (cvId geGetEditCellView()))
let((nwShapeL coord label llcoord xllcoord yllcoord txtlayer xll yll
    xur yur subShapeL)
  nwShapeL =setof(obj cvId~>shapes rexMatchp("NW" obj~>layerName))

Note that since you'd put (as it stood) a rather pointless let() around everything (there's no point using let if you don't specify any local variables), I put all the variables that should have been local into the let. I changed the function to accept an optional argument which is the cellView id, which defaults to the current window so you could still call it with no arguments and have it work on the current window. As you'll see, the revised code at the top passes in the cellView to work ok.

I'd also advise changing the function name to begin with a prefix which is unique in some way (and begins with a capital letter) to avoid clashing with anyone else's addtxt function that might get created.

Regards,

Andrew.
