Consult a skill for find cell placement

Jewell
Jewell over 2 years ago

Please consult everyone,

I want to achieve the following functions:

1; Open an any Top layout cell, assuming that there have been many calls to common cell A in this Top layout. Entering a common cell A, pressing a bindkey can list all common cell A called in the entire Top layout

2;After finding all common cells A, zoom in on one part of a common cell and click Next through the window to display the same points for browsing all common cells at the same magnification, in order to check if your edit meets all points and avoid errors such as LVS and DRC

Thank all .

    Hi Jewell,

    have you tried using the Find/Replace form, accessible from the menu bar Tools>Find/Replace in the layout editor?

    Regards,

    Hi,Matthias

    Use search and replace,must switch to the specified hierarchical to search,very trouble, and not all cells can zoom to a single point and sync. The function I want is to directly find all the same cells in the opened layout at any level, and all cells can be zoomed and  synchronized at one point for observation

    Regards,

    Jewell
