Re: Plotting in Virtuoso

map files are useful when a want to change the behaviour of data you stream out, for example if you only want to stream out metals and via but its not required for plotting neither is a tech file, which you can create: ICFC>TOOLS>TECH. FILE MANA. and dump the file. To plot in a layout window Design>PLOT?SUBMIT fill out form and go!

Re: Plotting in Virtuoso

before you plot any circuit/page, make sure that you keep .cdsplot or .cdsinitplot ( not sure about file name).. Otherwise you won't get any print..
