Category Management

To manage a large number of cells in a library, you can assign them to categories. You must have write permission for the library before you can create categories, assign cells to categories, or modify the categories to which the cells belong.

If you have any categories defined in a library, your library directory contains a libraryName.TopCat file. The libraryName.TopCat file contains a list of all the category files (categoryName.Cat) defined in that library. Each .Cat file contains a list of cells that are in that category.
