Rename a padstack made from axlDBCopyPadstack

Kirti Sikri

Hello,

I have to copy a padstack from a given padstack. So I used axlDBCopyPadstack. 

It creates it but the problem is that it assigns it a  name and we want name of new padstack to be different.


Allegro Skill documentation says

Description
axlDBCopyPadstack Creates a new padstack from an existing padstack. The name for the new padstack
automatically derives from the existing name by adding a post fix that does not collide with
any existing names. The padstack is marked in the database as derived from its starting
padstack.

Is it possible to rename the padstack somehow?

If not, then would I have to use make_axlPadStackPad?

Thanks,

Kirti
