    Hi,

    In my SKILL procedure I created a temporary cell using
    dbOpenCellViewByType(lib cell view "maskLayout" "w") function.


    How can I delete this cell afterwards?


    Any help appreciated,

    Taivo.

    d_cell = ddGetObj( lib cell )
    ddDeleteObj( d_cell )

    Regards Bernd

    Within the same procedure that does the cellview create you can just
    assign the result to a local variable and use a dbClose command
    without a dbSave command.

    let( ( cv )

    cv = dbOpenCellViewByType(lib cell view "maskLayout" "w")

    ;--- do not do a dbSave on the cv

    dbClose( cv )

    ) ; let

    If it still shows up in the Library Manager, do a View->Refresh in the
    Library Manager window.

    If you need to do a Save on the cellview then Bernd's solution will
    work.
