For rotation of any polygon in layout which is made by SKILL IDE

Upendra,

In this simple case, you could call dbTransformCellView(cv 1 45) at the end of the PCell code. If you need to rotate just a single polygon, then you'd end up having to do the maths to do the transformation (for 90 degree you could use dbMoveFig, but for 45 degrees it would need a bit of maths).

Thank you for your response however on writing this code like this

pcDefinePCell(list(ddGetObj("designFlow") "Four_leaf_1" "layout")

cv= geGetWindowCellView()

rodCreatePolygon(

?cvId cv

?layer list("M9" "drawing")

?pts list(

10:10

20:20

30:20

40:10

);listEnd

);polygonEnd

)

dbTransformCellView(cv 1 45)

i am getting following error.

*Error* dbTransformCellView: argument #1 should be a database object (type template = "dnn") at line 17 of file "/home/Downloads/Document_5" - nil

and also if i have two polygon in the code and only one i want to rotate then dbTransformCellView is still work for single polygon or it will work as a whole.

Ah, sorry, I didn't notice the mistake in your original code. You can't use geGetWindowCellView() in a PCell - that will return nil, most likely, and rodCreatePolygon will automatically pick up the correct cellView if nil is passed.

Instead of doing that, remove the cv=geGetWindowCellView, and then in the rest of the code instead of using cv, use pcCellView which is automatically defined within the body of a pcDefinePCell() call. So something like this (your parentheses were in the wrong place too - the transform needs to be inside the body of the pcDefinePCell, which it wasn't in your case):

pcDefinePCell(list(ddGetObj("designFlow") "Four_leaf_1" "layout")
  rodCreatePolygon(
    ?cvId pcCellView
    ?layer list("M9" "drawing")
    ?pts list(
      10:10
      20:20
      30:20
      40:10
    );listEnd
  );polygonEnd
  dbTransformCellView(pcCellView 1 45)
)

If you have two polygons and only want to rotate one of them, you could draw the one you want to rotate first, then dbTransformCellView, then draw the second polygon that you don't want to rotate. Or you could draw all the polygons you want to rotate first, do the transform cellView, then all the rest.

Regards.
