"\\Cell offers three methods to get these iterators: begin_shapes_rec, begin_shapes_rec_touching and begin_shapes_rec_overlapping.\n"
"\\Cell#begin_shapes_rec will deliver a standard recursive shape iterator which starts from the given cell and iterates "
"over all child cells. \\Cell#begin_shapes_rec_touching delivers a RecursiveShapeIterator which delivers the shapes "
"whose bounding boxed touch the given search box. \\Cell#begin_shapes_rec_overlapping delivers all shapes whose bounding box "
"overlaps the search box.\n"
"\n"
"A RecursiveShapeIterator object can also be created explicitly. This allows some more options, i.e. using "
"multiple layers. A multi-layer recursive shape iterator can be created like this:\n"
"\n"
"@code\n"
"iter = RBA::RecursiveShapeIterator::new(layout, cell, [ layer_index1, layer_index2 .. ])\n"
"@/code\n"
"\n"
"\"layout\" is the layout object, \"cell\" the RBA::Cell object of the initial cell. layer_index1 etc. are the "
"layer indexes of the layers to get the shapes from. While iterating, \\RecursiveShapeIterator#layer delivers "
"the layer index of the current shape.\n"
"\n"
"The recursive shape iterator can be confined to a maximum hierarchy depth. By using \\max_depth=, the "
"iterator will restrict the search depth to the given depth in the cell tree.\n"
"\n"
"In addition, the recursive shape iterator supports selection and exclusion of subtrees. For that purpose "
"it keeps flags per cell telling it for which cells to turn shape delivery on and off. The \\select_cells method "
"sets the \"start delivery\" flag while \\unselect_cells sets the \"stop delivery\" flag. In effect, using "
"\\unselect_cells will exclude that cell plus the subtree from delivery. Parts of that subtree can be "
"turned on again using \\select_cells. For the cells selected that way, the shapes of these cells and their "
"child cells are delivered, even if their parent was unselected.\n"
"\n"
"To get shapes from a specific cell, i.e. \"MACRO\" plus its child cells, unselect the top cell first "
"and the select the desired cell again:\n"
"\n"
"@code\n"
"# deliver all shapes inside \"MACRO\" and the sub-hierarchy:\n"
"iter = RBA::RecursiveShapeIterator::new(layout, cell, layer)\n"
"iter.unselect_cells(cell.cell_index)\n"
"iter.select_cells(\"MACRO\")\n"
"@/code\n"
"\n"
"Note that if \"MACRO\" uses library cells for example which are used otherwise as well, the "
"iterator will only deliver the shapes for those instances belonging to \"MACRO\" (directly or indirectly), "
"not those for other instances of these library cells.\n"
"\n"
"The \\unselect_all_cells and \\select_all_cells methods turn on the \"stop\" and \"start\" flag "
"for all cells respectively. If you use \\unselect_all_cells and use \\select_cells for a specific cell, "
"the iterator will deliver only the shapes of the selected cell, not its children. Those are still "
"unselected by \\unselect_all_cells:\n"
"\n"
"@code\n"
"# deliver all shapes of \"MACRO\" but not of child cells:\n"
"iter = RBA::RecursiveShapeIterator::new(layout, cell, layer)\n"
"iter.unselect_all_cells\n"
"iter.select_cells(\"MACRO\")\n"
"@/code\n"
"\n"
"Cell selection is done using cell indexes or glob pattern. Glob pattern are equivalent to the usual "
"file name wildcards used on various command line shells. For example \"A*\" matches all cells starting with "
"an \"A\". The curly brace notation and character classes are supported as well. For example \"C{125,512}\" matches "
"\"C125\" and \"C512\" and \"[ABC]*\" matches all cells starting with an \"A\", a \"B\" or \"C\". \"[^ABC]*\" matches "
"all cells not starting with one of that letters.\n"
"\n"
"The RecursiveShapeIterator class has been introduced in version 0.18 and has been extended substantially in 0.23.\n"
