Create tiles using SKILL

I'd like to create tiles within a specific area (0:0 L:W) in Cadence Virtuoso Layout.

Tiles can be simple paths which I can draw using a nested function. Is there a way to avoid writing two cycles to perform this function? I've seen the Mosaic functions but I have an issue in using them. For instance:

dbCreateSimpleMosaic(cv masterTile "myMos" 0:0 "R0" 5 7 3 2)

How do I get the values of

d_cellView
Database ID of a cellview.

and
d_masterCellView
Database ID of a master cellview.

I'm using this code within a PCELL which is defined at the beginning of the function as:

pcDefinePCell(
list(ddGetObj("MY_PCELLS") ; target library
"Stub_vers1" ; target cell
"layout") ; target view

---> Solution found here:

Hi Louis,

I am not sure if using mosaic and pcells is the best solution

You should have look at rodFillBBoxWithRects which might do what you are looking for

Cheers
