encounter streamout by preserving the partition

Shiny
Shiny over 12 years ago
After floorplanning my design in Encounter, I specified partition to few of my blocks in the design. I did gds streamout and imported the .gds file to virtuoso. The netlist extracted from virtuoso do not show the partitions. How should I preserve the partioning all the way until the netlist phase? Please help me out!

    The GDS format essentially defines the physical metal geometries and text in the design. It is not for translating floorplan constraints such as partitions. Can you explain what you are trying to do?

    The Mixed Signal Interoperability Guide (http://support.cadence.com/wps/mypoc/cos?uri=deeplinkmin:DocumentViewer;src=pubs;q=dmsflow/dmsflow13.1/dmsflowTOC.html) explains the mixed signal flows and how to pass partition information to Virtuoso for implementing analog blocks.
