Highlight location xy in rpt file

luanvn81

 Hi everyone!

 I have a code which print out a report file (ex: a.rpt) as below:

Via Start Layer   Via End Layer     Via Location
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (5.5:42.5)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (5.5:40.5)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (6.0:84.0)
ETCH/TOP          ETCH/BOTTOM       (6.0:86.0)

 I want to highlight location xy with one color  and after I checked a location , it will change into one other color( at the same way dangling report check in allegro)

How can I do it? 

Tks.

Luan.

    Hi Geoff,

    I think what Luan is asking is that if we run dangling line report from Tools->Reports->Dangling lines, we are able to zoom in the locations and the links(XY locations) that we clicked are highligted in a "Darker Tone" shade then the rest of Blue color locations as shown in my attached image.

    Is there any way to achieve this for any custom reports generated using SKILL?
