    below is an example from some code I wrote:

    (symbol = DBID)

    foreach(child (symbol->children)
    when(equal(child->objType "polygon") || equal(child->objType "shape")
    (ShapeLayer = (child->layer))
    when(or( and(equal(ShapeLayer "PACKAGE GEOMETRY/PLACE_BOUND_TOP") not(symbol->isMirrored))
    and(equal(ShapeLayer "PACKAGE GEOMETRY/PLACE_BOUND_BOTTOM") (symbol->isMirrored)))
    when(child->prop->PACKAGE_HEIGHT_MAX

    )

    )

    )

    )

    However some symbols might have multiple place_bound shapes if they have complex outlines & heights
