Keyboard shortcut key to delete all markers

Hi all,

What is the keyboard shortcut key to delete all the markers after
you do a DRC check ? I am doing a lot of DRC checks these days and it
is really a pain for me to every time I have to go through

Verify> Markers> Delete All.

Cheers,
Kamesh.

 

procedure( SJRemoveMarkers()
let((cv lpp)
cv = geGetEditCellView()
lpp = car(exists(x cv~>lpps (x->layerName == "marker") &&
(x->purpose == "error")))
when(lpp
foreach(marker lpp->shapes
dbDeleteObject(marker)
);foreach
);when
);let
);procedure

hiSetBindKey("Layout" "Alt<Key>d" "SJRemoveMarkers()")

 

Thanks a lot Suresh. That worked great.

 

Why bother? When you fix the errors and run DRC again the old markers
are automatically erased.

 

Well, I have been coping a lot with those notorious grid errors. They
really look monstrous and usually clutter the window. This is one
reason why I need to remove all those markers first. I am sure other
people will have other reasons to use this skill snippet.

 

Have you ever thought to implement a switch
in your drc command rule file to exclude/include
grid error checking?

Hi Bernd,

I am using HCMOS8D 0.18 u technology (from ST Microelectronics) and
it does not have any switch for excluding/including the grid error
checking. The following are the only switches that I can find.

Rpolyp_noCheck
drcERC_Check
drcPAD_ClassC1
drcPAD_ClassC2
drcPAD_ClassE1
drcPAD_ClassE2
drcPAD_ClassF1
drcPAD_ClassF2
drcPAD_ClassG drcPAD_noCheck
drcPAD_noCheckArchitecture
drcPAD_noCheckAssemblyRules
extPAR_CapPairNode
extPAR_CapSingleNode
extPAR_Res extPAR_Res_contactsize
extPAR_Res_distribute
extPAR_Res_distribute_contactsize
layin_device
layin_floorplan
lpetext
samenet
usenotext

I was able to remove those grid errors by adjusting the X snap spacing
and Y snap spacing settings.

Best Regards,
Kamesh.
