SKILL command to select figs or polygons under given points

Shiva Kalgi

Hello,

Can you help me with SKILL command or code to select figs or polygons under given point?

e.g. Need to select all figs or polygons under (10.0 10.0) coordinate.

Thanks,

Shivanand

    xy=10.0:10.0
    cv=geGetEditCellView()
    foreach(fig dbGetOverlaps(cv list(xy xy))
      geSelectFig(fig)
    )

    The geSelectPoint() function could have potentially been used, but that only selects a single object under the point at a time, and I don't think it would be very efficient to keep selecting until the selected set gets no larger.
