Shape - line intersections?

augustot
augustot over 12 years ago

Hello everybody,

    I am a newbee here, and I would like to learn which is the best way to find the intersections (if any) between a shape in my layout (e.g. a rectangle) and an ideal line using SKILL (6). I need then to reiterate the procedure through all the objects in my layout.

It would be even better if the "ideal line" would be a selected ruler segment.

Do you have any hint?

Thanks a lot in advance!

    Hello Andrew,

    sorry for my late reply, but I have been quite busy in the last days.

    Anyhow, many thanks for yours suggestions. I have been able to write some decent code that I am improving day after day as my knowledge of Skill advances.
    So far I asked my "users" to simply flatten their layout before running my code, but I am going to try to follow your suggestions to get the coordinates of objects inside instances...

    Thanks again for your help,
    Augusto
