Draw multiple clines on a given box or shape

vramananx

Hi

This is what I am trying to do

User to select a shape drawn in a drawing layer, now I want the skill to draw cline segments on regular interval with given width horizontally in one etch layer and vertically on the adjacent layer

 now I want to inserta a via on where the clines intersect on the adjacent layer

 I  am going to test out a procedure and let you guys know what is the result

Any ideas welcome

regards

  • Hi Guys

    I forgot to update, I figured it out and here is  a sample code

    Draw a shape (only rectangular) in an drawing layer then select it

    I still don't know how to achieve this with an irregular shape(this is where i need some help)

     axlClearSelSet()
     axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall", "SHAPES"), ?onButtons list("noall", "SHAPES"))
     
     shape = car(axlGetSelSet(axlSelect()) )
       
     layer1 = "CONDUCTOR/METAL2"
     layer2 = "CONDUCTOR/METAL1"
     _shbBox = shape->bBox
     _startX = car(xCoord(_shbBox))
     _startY = cadr(xCoord(_shbBox))
     _endX = car(yCoord(_shbBox))
     _endY = cadr(yCoord(_shbBox))

      i = _startY
      while(round(i)<=round(_endY) axlDBCreateLine((list _startX:i _endX:i), 20 layer1), i=i+100)
      j = _startX
      while(round(j)<=round(_endX) axlDBCreateLine((list j:_startY j:_endY), 20 layer2), j=j+100) 
       
       axlClearSelSet()
       axlSetFindFilter(?enabled list("noall", "clines"), ?onButtons list("noall", "clines"))
       clines = axlGetSelSet(axlAddSelectBox(_shbBox))
       axlClearSelSet()
       endType = 'SQUARE

       l1_clines = setof(a clines a->layer == "CONDUCTOR/TOP")
       l2_clines = setof(a clines a->layer == "CONDUCTOR/BOTTOM)
       l1_lines = l1_clines~>segments~>startEnd
       l2_lines = l2_clines~>segments~>startEnd
       _xSecList= list()
       foreach(a l1_clines foreach(b l2_clines _xSecList = cons(axl_ol_ol2(car(a->segments)->startEnd  car(b->segments)->startEnd) _xSecList)))

       foreach(a _xSecList axlDBCreateVia("VIA1", car(a), nil, nil)
