How to rotate subrects defined in the rodCreateRect?

Renee

Hi,

I want to build a cross-shape resistor pcell using skill.

When I build the horizontal contacts of resistor, I use rodCreateRect function. When I try to build the vertical contacts within the function body,  I find that I could not rotate these arrays 90 degree clockwise about origin except that defining the other rodCreateRect subject vertically.

Is there any other settings within rodCreateRect or other functions that I could use to solve this problem?

 Thanks in advance!

    Lei,

    Given that 5.10.41.169 is the "Base" release of IC5141, released nearly 7 years ago, I suspect that what you're seeing is a bug in that release (I didn't try it). Using such an old base release without taking advantage of any of the 6 Update releases or 147 hotfixes there have been in the last 6.75 years makes little sense anyway...

    Even USR5 is nearly 4 years old...

    I think that the SKILL code is correct.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
