modify corner of rod object

Dexter073

How can I use the leModifyCorner to a rectangle (or polygon) created by a ROD object? If only a databse object can be modifed by leModifyCorner; is it possible to first create a polygon object, modify the corner, and somehow convert it to a ROD object? I need ROD objects for aligning.

I tried this sample code:

pcDefinePCell(
list( ddGetObj( "my_library") "my_cell_view" "layout")

(
( w 1.44)
( l 2.14)
(polyoffx 0.94)
(polyoffy 0.2)
(poly_length 1)
(poly_width 1)

(polyLayer "POLY")
(activeLayer "ACTIVE")
);end of default values

 ;Define contents of the pcell

let((poly active)

poly= rodCreatePolygon(
?layer list(polyLayer "drawing")

?pts list( 0:0 poly_length:0 poly_length:poly_width 0:poly_width )
)
leModifyCorner( poly list(t t t t) t 0.1 4)  ; compains poly is not a  database object

active = rodCreateRect(
?layer list(activeLayer "drawing")
?pts list( 0:0 l:0 l:w 0:w )
)

leModifyCorner( active list(t t t t) t 0.1 4)  ; compains active is not a  database object

rodAlign(
?alignObj active
?alignHandle "lowerLeft"
?refObj poly
?refHandle "lowerLeft"
?xSep polyoffx
?ySep polyoffy
)

)

)

Many thanks in advance. Kindly provide a small code (or modify the existing) to make it work; I am still a newbie..

    Thank you so much Andrew; it works with the suggestion you have given. However, as you suggested, I will try to write a function to chamfer corners to avoid problems. Thanks!
