Hi Matthias,
I completely agree. I use PCells only to generate text. With regards to the empty Region: I observed that the shapes are "cleaned" (no error but they disappear) when I delete the cell they are coming from.
One remark on the …

scell = layout.convert_cell_to_static(pcell_var)scell = layout.cell(scell)it = layout.begin_shapes(scell, layout.layer(N,0)) # N is the the layer indexr = pya.Region…
I found a way to get what I want but it seems a bit cumbersome. I write the text to a new layer and use cell.top.begin_shapes_rec(layer) to convert all objects from that layer into a region. Then I can use the boolean operations on the regions and w…
