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!

    Hi Brian,

    I tried converting my transistor level hspice netlist of sensor into lef format, instantiated in verilog  and did place-and-route in encounter. But in place phase, the standard cells are populated in the entire circuit except  in the sensors since the are not described as netlist with standard cells to start with. In the final gds, the sensor location came out as empty. Please let me know if my flow has a problem.
    Also, I was not able to access the mixed signal interoperability guide that you suggested me to. If possible, could you send me the file to spendya2@mail.usf.edu so I will try to find solution to my problem from the interoperability guide?

    Thanks a lot,
    Shiny
