Delete Display Instances
Tools Supported: DFTInsight, FastScan, and FlexTest
FastScan Scope: All modes
FlexTest Scope: Setup and Drc modes
Prerequisites: You must first invoke the optional DFTInsight application and have
it displaying instances.
Usage
DELete DIsplay Instances {gate_id# | instance_name}... | -All
DFTInsight Menu Path:
Display > Deletions > All | Selected
Description
Removes the specified objects from the display in DFTInsight.
The Delete Display Instance command removes the specified instance from the
Schematic View area of the DFTInsight window. When you remove objects,
DFTInsight automatically updates the schematic view window with the new
display.
DFTInsight marks key instances in the schematic view. If you delete a key
instance, the command removes the marked instance from the schematic view and
updates the marked instances list. The list is updated so that if you add the
instance later via another command, DFTInsight will not display it as marked.
Arguments
•gate_id#
A repeatable integer that specifies the gate identifications of the gates that you
want to remove from the DFTInsight display. 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.
•instance_name
A repeatable string that specifies the names of the top-level instances within
the design that you want to remove from the DFTInsight display.
