Positioning the instances in Layout editor by using SKILL

RFStuff

 Dear All,

I am trying to place copies of an instance/object ( say a simple via ) with 'x' distance separation in X-direction.

Is there any in-built feature already available in IC5141 ?

Otherwise, is there any solution ( SKILL script) already posted in the forum ? I searched but couldn't find so.

The code needs three functions:

1) Find the cordianate of the OBJECT/INSTANCE ( this I have already found in the Forum)

2) Copy the object. For this what is the SKILL function ?

3) Paste the desired distance separation ( For palcing wht is the simple SKILL function)

Couls anybody please tell regarding this.

Kind Regards,

     Dear Andrew,

    Thanks a lot.

    The dbCopyFig(), copy the figure at the relative offset with respect to the Lower Left corner of the bBox of the original object.

    Is it possible to place/copy the object to a given arbitrary coordinate.

    Also is it possible to make the relative movemt with respect to some other coordinate of the bBox.

    Of courseone can write a script and do the manipulation to achieve the same. However I believe there may be way to do it by a single command.

    Kind Regards,
