geGetSelSet() not worked on softblock's shape

Hi,

There is a top block layout and a sub-block(softMacro) was placed inside the softMacro, after that, a pin belongs to sub-block was selected in top block layout level, and I tried to use geGetSelSet(), but the return value is nil? Is there any other function that I can use to report selected pin information? 

Many Thanks

Amos

    Hi Amos,

    Use geGetObjectSelectedSet() instead. You need something that can return hierarchical objects. There is also hsmGetSelectedSet() but that doesn't return the actual objects, but instead a description of what is selected.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
