Hi, Please advice me on creating a circular keepout on Route Keepout/All at a given xy location using skill. I tried using axlDBCreateOpenShape and axlDBCreateCloseShape but not able to create a filled shape.

    This will create an unfilled shape on certain classes only and not on Route Keepout/All. Route Keepout layer needs filled circular shape.

    Create a path using axlPathStartCircle. Then create your filled shape from that. Eg: path = axlPathStartCircle(list(0:0, 10) 0) axlDBCreateShape(path, t, "Route Keepout/All")
