Virtuoso Composer - Search & Replace

[Thomas Popp]

Is there any possibility to use a more advanced search-find/replace
mechanism for composer, i.e. where one can use more than one search
criteria?

Tnaks for any hints,
-Thomas

There's a rather old PCR for this, 166549.

It's been inactivated for some reason (age, probably), but I'll forward it to
the composer team as a suggestion. It seems like a good idea to me.

I have a couple more related PCRs:
290759
310843

What is the percentage of all PCRs in backlog? I am guessing 90%.

Those two PCRs are to do with the layout search, and are asking for multiple
_replace_ fields, not additional _search_ criteria in the schematic search.
There's also now the Remaster Instances command which might help solve some
of that problem, I guess.

Well your guess is way out. It's just over 5%.

The remaster instances form is only in the layout from what I can
tell. I think the same can be done from the schematic with the search
and replace form by putting master as the search and replace field and
entering lib cell view. It would be nice if we had consistent
functionality in both schematic and layout.

There was an effort a few years ago to try to make these kind of forms
consistent between layout and schematic. The biggest mistake Cadence made
was to talk to customers about it, and it was clear that nobody could agree
as to what was wanted. Some wanted them both to stay as they were, some
wanted the forms like the layout tools, some like the schematic.

It killed the activity dead.

I'm being slightly facetious here, but this isn't far from the truth.

Andrew (speaking for himself rather than representing Cadence).
