Hi,
I have run into a situation where I need to modify a cell (not a PCell) from a given library. This cell has some shapes and layer information, what I would like to do is to do some simple operation (drawing a BOX and inverting the shape in a given layer, or changing the layer of some shapes), then I would insert the modified cell into the top cell (as an instance).
What would be the most elegant way of doing this?
Thanks very much!

Hi Xyan,
You can use "Edit/Selection/Convert to static cell". This will turn a library cell into a normal cell without your layout. After this, you can edit this new cell.
