Asking SKILL Code for Virtouso

archive

I'm new to the forums and really need this code.

Here goes, I would like a SKILL code for Virtouso that goes something like this. It's a "Flip Command". The code should flip any object-->instance, path/wire, polygons, rectangle, contacts etc. either "vertical" or "horizontal". And added to that, if you select multiple objects, you could also flip them "vertical or horizontal". it's like a picture when you flip it or mirror it.

like, the objects are selected, "123" when FLIPPED all objects becomes "321".

Thanks. I hope someone could help me, i have other request for Virtouso but they don't have any forums.

  • My first reaction is why don't you do this without skill in Virtuoso? Just select the
    things, type m to move, click the swap button from the form, and click the right
    mouse button to place them flipped.
    If you want to do this with skill, you not only need to swap each instance but also
    calculate a new origin for each instance.

    I have an example how to rotate instances here. It is not difficult to modify this for
    flipping only. However, only the orientation is modified, not the origin.

    procedure( wrRotateInst( )

      let( ( wrOrient)

        foreach( instancepointer geGetSelectedSet( )
          unless( null( instancepointer->orient)
        wrOrient = instancepointer->orient
        case( wrOrient
          ( "R0"
            wrOrient = "R90"
          )
          ( "R90"
            wrOrient = "R180"
          )
          ( "R180"
            wrOrient = "R270"
          )
          ( "R270"
            wrOrient = "R0"
          )
          ( "MY"
            wrOrient = "MYR90"
          )
          ( "MYR90"
            wrOrient = "MX"
          )
          ( "MX"
            wrOrient = "MXR90"
          )
          ( "MXR90"
            wrOrient = "MY"
          )
        ) ;; case
        instancepointer->orient = wrOrient
          ) ;; unless
        ) ;; foreach
      ) ;; let
    )
