    You mean like Edit->Advanced->Size? The corresponding SKILL function is leSizeShape.

    Andrew,

    I tried Edit -> Advanced -> Size option it has only grow option.

    Ok let me try on exploring leSizeShape. Thanks for letting know. 

    I am looking for something like a polygon rectangle suppose 1 um x 1 um to be shrink by 0.2 um on all sides

    The ability to size differently in different directions was added in IC6.1.8/ICADVM18.1. However, if you want to just shrink by 0.2um on all sides, you don't need that - you can just size by -0.2 (negative numbers mean that it will shrink rather than grow).
