Hello, i am sorry for my English skill.

i am noob for cadence skill language.

As the title says, in window cell view, i want to know point(coordinate) of layer i want

i made a cell named "DECAP" and i placed "DECAP" as mosaic ...

Poly layers is in different hierarchy.

in order to find out all point of Poly layers, i made a script by using skill language...

Script :

wcv = geGetWindowCellView()
overlaps = dbGetTrueOverlaps(wcv wcv~>bBox list("POLY" "drawing") 32 t)

transform = nil
temp = nil
label = nil

foreach(overlap overlaps
transform = append( transform list(dbGetInstTransform(overlap)) )
);foreach
foreach(i transform
temp = append( temp list(nthelem(1 i)) )
);foreach

Result :

((4.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
((4.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
((4.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
((12.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
((12.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
((12.2 4.2) "R0" 1.0)
(((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 0) db:0x1fa1ada3)
((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 0) db:0x1fa1add4)
((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 0)
(db:0x1fa14b9a db:0x1fa14ca0)
)
((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 1) db:0x1fa1ada3)
((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 1) db:0x1fa1add4)
((db:0x1fa1cc9b 0 1)
(db:0x1fa14b9a db:0x1fa14ca0)
)
)

i don't know meaning of (4.2 4.2), (12.2 4.2) ... as result of dbGetInstTransform.
