Object Deletion

You can use the Delete command to delete objects. The following table describes the support available for deleting objects.

Object Support for the Delete Operation

ROD objects

The Delete command fully supports ROD objects.

  • When you delete using the Net Interconnect option, all ROD objects on the selected net are deleted, except for pins. For multipart paths (MPP) and multipart rectangles (MPR), when the master path or master rectangle is on the selected net, the MPP or MPR and all subparts are deleted; otherwise, no part of the MPP or MPR is deleted.
  • When you delete a segment of an MPP with the Path Segment option, the remaining segments of the MPP become two separate multipart paths, each with its own name.

Boundaries

  • You can delete pre- or post- selected boundaries.
  • You cannot delete partially selected edges of boundary objects.

Blockages

  • You can delete pre- or post- selected blockages.
  • You cannot delete partially selected edges of the blockage object.
  • When you delete the owner of a blockage, the blockage object is also deleted.
