Hello,

I am in a need of a skill program to find all instances of a specific cell (Including Mosaics), throughout the hierarchy. The program should print the instance's name, xy coordinates at the top level, and extract a label name that is dropped on top of it. In case there is no label on top of the found instance, the program should print "No Label Found" in the report text file. This program aims to map PADs cells within top level.

I am using the below Cadence's solution to find instances and it works well. The missing feature is to identify LABELs that are on top of the found instances. 

I tried to use dbGetOverlap() function, within the below code, in few setups but it seems to fail to identify the existence of labels on top of the found instances.

For example: 

overlapLabel=dbGetTrueOverlaps(cv cadr(instBox) list("M1" "text"))

I am interested to add to the Cadence's solution below some code in order to identify labels on top of the found instances.

Any tip would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Danny

Inside the scope of isCallable there is code which I don't want to be executed.

The procedure named in isCallable to-day is callable.

I want to make that procedure so it cannot be called.  How do I do that?

I can't change the isCallable line or the scope.  I want to change its behavior by making sure that the procedure does not exist (obviously this would be done before the code is executed).

I have a SKILL script that executes the callback of a menu item, and depends on first redefining an environment variable. 

When a user interrupts the script with ctrl-C, the script cannot finish to set the environment variable back to its default value.

How can I write the script in a way that handles a user interrupt to reset the changed environment variable after the interrupt?

I want to select a constraint, and then run a SKILL command that returns a list with the members of that constraint. Is this possible?

Thx,

I have a modeless informational dialog box defined at the beginning of a SKILL script, but its contents don't display until the script finishes.

How do you get a modeless dialog box contents to display while a SKILL script is running?

procedure(myproc()

   prog((myvars)

     hiDisplayAppDBox()    ; opens blank dialog box - no dboxText contents show until script completes!

     ....rest of SKILL code in script...launches child processes

   );prog

);proc

Can anybody assist with a Skill code /function to disable all callbacks

Hi there,

I'm running a transient simulation, and I want to get all instances with model implementation hisim_hv because after that I want to process the data and to adjust some parameters for this kind of devices before dumping the values.

What is the easiest/fastest way to get those instances in skill/ocean?

What I did until now: 

- save the final OP of the simulation and then in skill

openResults()
selectResults('tranOp)
report(?type "hisim_hv" ?param "vgs")

Output seems to be promising, and looks like I can redirect it to a file and after that I have to parse the file.

Is there other simple way? I mean to not save data to file and to parse it.

Eventually having an instance name, is it possible to get the model implementation (hsim_hv, bsim4, etc..)? 

Best Regards,

Marcel

I would like to generate the comparison report of database footprint with library footprint if any mismatch available.

Is there a way to take if it possible means can anyone please guide me or share me the skill code please.

Other tools allow a sanity check of placement density vs available board space.  There is an older post "Skill code to evaluate all components area (Accumulative Place bound area)"  (9 years ago) that has a couple of examples that no longer work or expired.

This would be useful to provide feedback to schismatic and project managers regarding the component density on the PCB and how it will affect the routing abilities.  Thermal considerations can be evaluated as well 

Has anyone attempted this or still being done externally in spread sheets?

Hi , 

I am sharing with you some simple skill script that draw line in user layer :

axlCmdRegister("DrawLine" 'DrawLine)
procedure(DrawLine()
   layer_name = "substrate geometry/userlayer"
   mypopup = axlUIPopupDefine(nil '(
      ("Done" "axlDBTransactionCommit(mark), axlFinishEnterFun()")
      ("Oops" "axlDBTransactionOops(mark), when(zerop(--oopsNum)")
      ("Cancel" "axlDBTransactionRollback(mark), axlCancelEnterFun()")
      ("MENU_SEPARATOR", nil)))
   axlUIPopupSet( mypopup)
   ; Clear the dynamic buffer
   axlClearDynamics()

   if(axlLayerGet(layer_name) != nil then
      if(axlIsVisibleLayer(layer_name) == nil then
         axlVisibleLayer(layer_name,t)
         axlVisibleUpdate(t)
      );End if
   else
      if(axlLayerGet("substrate geometry") == nil then
         layer_name = "board geometry/userlayer"
         axlLayerCreateNonConductor(layer_name)
         axlVisibleLayer(layer_name,t)
         axlVisibleUpdate(t)
      else
         axlLayerCreateNonConductor(layer_name)
         axlVisibleLayer(layer_name,t)
         axlVisibleUpdate(t)
      );End if
   );End if

   ; Clear mypath to nil, then loop gathering user picks:
   mypath = nil
   mark = axlDBTransactionStart()
   flag = t
   allP = list(nil)
   seg1 = nil
   seg2 = nil
   while( (mypath = axlEnterPath(?lastPath mypath))
      if(flag == t then
         p = axlDBCreatePath(mypath, layer_name)
         seg1 = car(car(car(p))->segments)
         seg2 = car(cdr(car(car(p))->segments))
         path = axlPathStart( list(car(seg1->startEnd)) , 0)
         axlPathLine( path , 0 , car(cdr(seg1->startEnd)))
         if(seg2 then
            axlPathLine( path , 0 , car(cdr(seg2->startEnd)))
         );end if
         flag = nil
      else
         p = axlDBCreatePath(mypath, layer_name)
         seg1 = car(car(car(p))->segments)

         if(seg2 then
            axlPathLine( path , 0 , car(cdr(seg2->startEnd)))
         );end if
      );end if
      allP = cons(car(car(p)) allP)
   );Loop
   axlDBCreatePath(path, layer_name)
   forall( x allP axlDeleteObject(x))
);End procedure

Is anyone can help to understand why this script can work with 16.5/16.6/17.2 and doesn't work with 17.4 ?

To be more informative in 17.4 this script behaves differently , when i am trying to draw line i can't zoom in/out ,i can't use my shortcuts to snap it on segment/middle/edge , it's like it's waiting only for next X/Y user click , all other functions just disabled .

Thanks .
