How to invoke "AutoRoute" by using SKILL functions

[asktech]

Hi all,

Assume that all components placed in a layout cellview (Virtuoso XL). In this cellview, we can route by click on "Routing" -> "Export to Router", then the "Export to Router" window pops up, all parameters entered into the form, then click "OK" button.

Now, the .dsn window pops up. Does anyone know some SKILL functions that can invoke "Autoroute" ( -> "Route", -> "Clean" ) in the .dsn window, instead of clicking on "Autoroute" menu?

Really appreciate for your help!

You may try to copy the code in CDS.log file.

Yes, I tried those commands in .dsn window, not in CIW. Do you know any SKILL commands/functions can be executed in CIW?

By the way, where are the "do", "did" files located?

Thanks a lots for your response!
