  2. Use drc(coverage) to do a density check. Use the example in the Diva
    Reference Manual to do simple area fill using geomArrayShapes.

    Hi Edward,

    Thanks very much. So there is no available tool with GUI to do such
    kind of check, is that right?

  4. Well.... Diva does have a GUI.

    I don't know of any tool that just does a density check. Almost all the
    DRC tools have a density check and some form of area fill capability, so
    there is little point to a tool that just does that one thing.
