Description
Highlights the objects that you specify in the Schematic View window.
The Mark command marks objects such that the DFTInsight Schematic View
window graphically highlights them. You can either mark all the objects in the
design, individual objects that you specify, or all objects in the current selection
list. Marking allows you to quickly locate and identify objects in a complex
schematic view.
Additionally, many commands automatically mark key instances during
execution. Those commands that replace the display list also automatically
unmark all system and user-marked objects.
Arguments
gate_id#
A repeatable integer that specifies the gate identification number of the objects
to mark. The value of the gate_id# argument is the unique identification
number that the tool automatically assigns to every gate within the design
during the model flattening process.
pin_pathname
A repeatable string that specifies the name of a pin whose gate you want to
mark.
instance_name
A repeatable string that specifies the name of the instance to mark.
