Skill code to copy object to another metal layer but maintain the objects purpose

cvictoria

Hi so I'm trying to convert my selected object into another metal layer put want to maintain the purpose. For example, if i have M1 exclude I want to convert it to M2 exclude. or an M1 drawing to a M2 drawing etc.

The code I've written works if I always want to be converting to drawing, but I can't seem to figure out how I can maintain the purpose. I don't want to only be converting it to type "drawing" and placing my objPurpose variable instead of "drawing" gives me errors.

procedure(CopytoLayer(objT)

obj = geGetSelSet()


objPurpose= cadr(car(obj~>lpp)) 


printf("The objects purpose is %s \n" objPurpose)

case(objT

(objT == "M1"

obj~>lpp = ("M1" "drawing"))

(objT == "M2"

obj~>lpp = '("M2" "drawing"))

(objT == "M3"

obj~>lpp = '("M3" "drawing"))

))

I understand I could make more cases where I can assign according to the result of my objPurpose variable, but this seems tedious to do for M1 exclude, M1 drawing, M1 vdd etc. So I'm sure theres a better way but I'm not seeing it.

Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, There you go:

    procedure(CopytoLayer(layerName)
  obj = car(geGetSelSet())
  destructuringBind( (_layer purpose) obj->lpp
    printf("The objects purpose is %s \n" purpose)
      if( leIsLayerValid( list( layerName purpose ))
        then
        obj->lpp = list( layerName purpose )
        else
        obj->lpp = list( layerName "drawing" )
)))

    Cheers,
