How to get screen copies under specific view condition

Teru
Teru over 14 years ago

After Route operation, I take screen copies under specific view conditions,
(area, specific layer, specific object, congestion map and so on)
It's quite routine work but take time due to the volume I have to care.
Can EDI get screen copies automatically under a specific condition?
Ex. PhysicalView 
    Area ( 200 -200, 500 300) 
    Instance, Block, Obs, Net and Special Nets(M6 only)
    Congestion Map

    I occasionally found following command to dump screen copies.

    - setLayerPreference : specify color and visible, invisible
    - createSnapshot : create whole design image as gif format.
    - viewSnapshot :  viewer of gif format

    The dump command createSnapshot seem to output whole design image.
    To make design report I want to specify the area that have congestion problem.

    Best regards
