leSetEntryLayer

leSetEntryLayer( 
l_layerPurposePair 
[ d_techFileId ] 
) 
=> t / nil

Description

Sets the entry layer for technology file d_techFileId to the layer specified by l_layerPurposePair, which can be either a list containing a layer name and a layer purpose, or just a layer name (the layer purpose then defaults to drawing). If d_techFileId is not specified, the current technology file is used.

In Palette mode, this SKILL API will work only for the current active window.

Arguments

l_layerPurposePair
	Specifies the layer to use as the entry layer for library d_techFileId. Valid Values: any valid layer name and layer purpose
d_techFileId	Database ID for the technology file specified.

Value Returned

`t`	The entry layer is set; otherwise.
`nil`	The entry layer is not set and the software generates a warning message.

Example

Makes poly1 with the purpose drawing the entry layer for the technology file myTechFile and returns t.

leSetEntryLayer( list("poly1" "drawing") myTechFile )
