Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

Hello everyone,
I'm using Allegro 14.2, and I want to get a report which includes the names of the nets which had been highlighted. How can I implement that through SKILL?
Thanks.

In 14.2 you can query if an dbid is highlighted via a private Skill function:
_axlGetObjectHighlight(o_dbid)

it returns a l_highlightInfo which is constructed as
follows:

A list of highlight data which describess the
highlight state of the dbid. Lists with the
currently displayed highlighting first.
Each list entry is a list which has a
description string and a highlight color.

The following return would be for a dbid
that has the temporary highlight (color 2) and
the permanent highlight (color 15) for PINS.
((""TEMP_HLT"" 2) (""PERM_HLT_PIN"" 15))


It is a private Skill function which means it may
disappear or change in a future release. In 15.5 it
is replaced by a public skill function, axlIsHighlighted
which has a simple return value.
