how to get the orientation of the terminal in "symbol"

Hi All.

I'd like to get the orientation of the terminal for the "symbol" view in the cadence.

Suppose I get the cellview ID by

cv = dbOpenCellViewByType(libId~>name cellId~>name "symbol" "" "a")

and then get the first terminal by

term = car( cv~>terminals )

and how can I find the orientation for the terminal "term", or the orientation of its corresponding shape of the pin.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards

Yi

    I'm actually interested in knowing this too. How does one know what the orientation of pin is? or more accurately, the orientation of the terminal label (if it exists)? -j
