Selecting & Deleting Objects by Net Connection?

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knows of a quick way to select all obects
that are connected to certain nets. I ask because I want to
selectively remove parasitic capacitors attached to specific nets that
have been extracted from layout in a calibre schematic in order to
determine which are the most critical in terms of performance hits.
Doing this by hand would be extremely tedious as there are hundreds of
extracted parasitic capacitances.

Thanks,
Ross

Ross,
netId->instTerms would return the list of instance terminals the net is
connecting to. These instTerms again have pointer instTerm->inst
pointing to the instance id. Thus you can get all the instances that a
particular net is connecting to.

netId~>instTerms~>inst
