lxGenFromSource - BUT ignore existing layout views and give me "flat" devices

vtboy51

I am using the lxGenFromSource in my SKILL routine to generate a layout view of my top level cellview (which has multiple sub-cells instantiated). As we all know if a layout view is found for any of the schematic sub-cells it will place that layout view and not generate "flat" devices. However, for my needs I would like to specify a temp library to generate the top level layout in, and NOT pull-in the existing layouts. 

My workaround has been to copy the schem/symbols into a temp lib and then run, but the copy is slow for larger designs.
