dbSetCellViewSymmetry

dbSetCellViewSymmetry( 
d_cellViewID 
t_symmetry
)
=> t / nil

Description

Sets the symmetry (or orientation) on a cellview (for which the ID is specified). The symmetry of the cellview can be set to a string value, such as X, Y, XY, any, or none, where X mirrors the cellview about the x axis and Y mirrors the cellview about the y axis.

Arguments

d_cellviewID	The database ID of the cellview.
t_symmetry	String value specifying the symmetry of the cellview. You can also use a string value from the following list: X for symmetry about the x axis, Y for symmetry about the y axis, XY for symmetry about the x and y axis, any for symmetry about any axis, and no for no specific orientation.

Value Returned

t	The symmetry value is set.
nil	The cellview ID is invalid.

Examples

cv = geGetWindowCellView(hiGetCurrentWindow())

dbSetCellViewSymmetry(cv "X")

dbGetCellViewSymmetry(cv)
