Hello all,
I want to find out how we can know the database id of nets , instances etc.
I can get the dbid of a cellview by using the command deGetCellView() command.

Cheers,

You can get the id of the selected instance (only one selected) by:

car(geGetSelSet())

You can get a list of all instances by

cellViewId~>instances

You can get the id of a selected net by

car(geGetSelSet())~>net

Hello Hughes,
The third command car(geGetSelSet())~>net
is not working. It is giving the result as nil.
Here I have selected a path and executed the command it's giving as nil.

Cheers,
Sridhar.
