Subject: Is There A Way To Highlight Cells In Design_Analyzer From Scripts?
Hi John,
Presented with a list of cell names, how can you highlight the objects in
the schematic of design_analyzer FROM the command window? Using the
Edit-Select menu item on each element of the list followed by a Ctrl+E to
highlight all those selected is not an option due to the time involved of
filling out the Name field in the Edit-Select menu for each element in the
list. There does not appear to be a command for the command window such as
highlight find(cell, cell_name1) or highlight cell_name_list
If such a command existed then it would be very easy to write a script
to process a cell list. A compromise would be the ability to select the
objects in the schematic of design_analyzer via a command such as
"select cell_name_list" and then perform a Ctrl+E.
It seems to me that this link between the command window and the schematic
graphics is missing. Has anybody out there got a neat solution to this?
