    Hi all,

    I want to mark some thousands points on a layout whose coordinates are
    known. So far, I used "leCreateRuler" to put a ruler between that
    point and some nearby point. But the rulers are not nice and visible
    when I zoom fit.

    So I am thinking for draw a circle (filled) or a box (filled) with
    some color (any color will do). The center is my point and the radios
    can be any number. Is there a way to do it in SKILL?

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,

    Hrh

    You could use geAddHilightCircle to do this - create a hilight set and then add
    circles to it. This can be done without altering the database. You can also add
    circles to the database using dbCreateEllipse - but probably you want the object
    to be display only...
