how to insert a polygon?

jiunnweiyeh

Hi sir,
I got a list that is a polygon each points (coordinate) from another software.
can I follow that to create a shape as the coordinate list to make me double check by manual ?
that is what my code and idea.....but ~~ that not workable...

Hi @jiunnweiyeh,

"Polygon" takes an list of points, for example this way:

pts = [ 
  [ -2348.275000,-4985.623000 ], 
  [ -2348.275000,-4985.624000 ], 
  [ -2347.906000,-4986.132000 ],
...
]

layer1 = layout.layer(1, 0)
top = layout.cell(current_work_cell)
top.shapes(layer1).insert(RBA::DPolygon::new(pts))

You also should use "DPolygon", if your coordinates are in micrometers. With "Polygon" (no "D"), the coordinates have to be in database units (1 = 1 DBU).

Is there a way to specify a different insertion point for the shapes? Like for instance say I have a shape created in a cell and I want to create a few different versions of the position of this cell using the python macros for automating changes. I am looking to layer a few other not changing blocks, where their coordinates and positions align at the origin, but I want to place inside a new block iterations of a block conformation shifted by specific units--in particular it would be two of the same design shifted away from center by a unit of distance.

What I have looks something like this...

def _single_cell_create(self, 
                        block_cell_name,
                        cell_contents):

    # Create or find the block cell
    block_cell = self.layout.create_cell(block_cell_name)

    for _components in cell_contents:
        block_layer_index, block_shape, block_coordinates = _components

        block_cell.shapes(block_layer_index).insert(block_shape)

Inside the cell_contents, I envision that there would be a tuple of an integer (layer), string (block or shape), and some coordinates. However I cannot seem to see where to put the coordinates for where they should go, or what reference origin point to use.

Is there a way to do this that isn't by hand?

@Matthias
Thanks , but I using that code and get a script erorr as
"RuntimeError: No overload with matching agruments in DPolygon::initalize"
it any wrong or mistake in my code?

layoutView = RBA::Application::instance.main_window.current_view.active_cellview.layout
layout_view = RBA::Application::instance.main_window.current_view
current_work_cell= RBA::Application::instance.main_window.current_view.active_cellview.cell_name
layout = RBA::CellView.active.layout
pts = [[-5000,-5000],[-5000,5000],[5000,5000],[5000,-5000]]
puts pts
layer1 = layout.layer(1, 0)
top = layout.cell(current_work_cell)
top.shapes(layer1).insert(RBA::DPolygon::new(pts))

Hi @jiunnweiyeh,

Are you using some (quite) old version maybe?

It works in 0.30.1:

Older versions want to see a list of DPoint objects:

pts = [RBA::DPoint::new(-5000,-5000),RBA::DPoint::new(-5000,5000),RBA::DPoint::new(5000,5000),RBA::DPoint::new(5000,-5000)]
polygon = RBA::DPolygon::new(pts)
...

Hi @double0darbo,

Regarding your question: all work objects (Polygon, DPolygon, Box, ...) have a "moved" method that creates a shifted version of that object. Use that to move the object by the specified distance before inserting it.

Hi @Matthias
Yes , I using 0.28.12 version , cause in my side , we have a lot scrpit base on this version.
and I have to check some condition is fine in the new version and apply some document .
After that (all document been approveed) , I can update the new version(finally~)....
But , I have no time to do that... it is reason I using a old version...
