How to find data extents

[Kevin Doherty]

Hi,
Is there a way to automatically find the extents of a cellview. In CATS
you can use a 'ext_all' command to find the top co-ordinates of the
given cell. Does cadence have a similar command.

Thanks in advance
Kevin

The data extend is what Cadence calls the bBox. You need to get your
cellView id, then bBox=cellView~>bBox, and this will return the bBox of
that cv.
