Highlight a Shape within a PCELL

Anchan

Is there a skill function to highlight a shape within a PCell or an Instance. I Could get the transformed bbox of the shape within the PCell.

    if you have the bounding box of the (sub)shape to be highlighted you can create a highlight set with

    highlightSet = geCreateHilightSet(..)

    ...then add the bounding box to it with

    geAddHilightRectangle(hiLightSet bBox)

    ...and eventually enable the highlighting:

    highlightSet->enable = t

    Check the documentation for the above functions parameters.
