How to use axlDBCreateGroup and axlDBAddGroupObjects

Example (for what it's worth):
myGroupDBID = axlDBCreateGroup("MYVIAS", "generic", nil)
axlDBAddGroupObjects(myGroupDBID, viaList)

In your use model it is unnecessary to use a group. You can use axlTransformObject to achieve your result.
eg. axlTransformObject(viaList, ?angle myAngle, ?origin myRotateAroundPoint)

Hi Dave,

Thank you for sharing the syntax and while running the code it shows the error message "*WARNING* (axlDBCreateGroup): ERROR(SPMHDB-246): Specified group name already in use". The group named as "GrpVias" and next when execute the code, this group name have been change to "GrpVias1,GrpVias2,,,". Is there any method to increment the group name by automatically?
And using the axlTransformObject function, it spinning the objects by itself instead of moving from existing location to new location( need to rotate by myAngle) w.r.t origin "pinXY".

Thanks,
Rajagopal

There are a number of axl group functions that you should investigate to help you handle groups including axlDBCreateGroup, axlDBRemoveGroupObjects, axlDBDisbandGroup and axlDBAddGroupObjects.

Incrementing a name is as simple as using something like sprintf(myGrpName, "GrpVias%d", ++counter) where counter has been initialised to an integer.

axlTransformObject should do what you want. You must include the ?origin parameter. This is the centre of rotation around which you want objects to rotate.
