Hi Folks,
 Where I can find option for aligning the multiple number of components either 
in same X-axis or Y-axis while placement in  15.2 editor.
perhaps someone could refresh my memory on this :-)
 
 
Thanks with Regards,
Suresh

The only way I can think of is to use the subdesign option in the packager..
 
you have to use the property SUBDESIGN_SUFFIX. 
So if the SUBDESIGN_SUFFIX is set to ROM, then you can get R1_ROM, R2_ROM etc.

still looking for a solution :)
2006/9/28, Patrick Escher <patrickescher@xxxxxxxxx>: 
Hello , 

I am trying to find a way to rename a cell in Allegro Design Entry HDL and 
updating all the references.
For example, I have a design root dsp which instantiates the cell rom and 
schematic.
I now want to rename the cell rom to rom_1 and update all the references. 

I did'nt find any hint in the documentation ( besides cdscopyshell, which does 
no run on Windows), so I suppose that this can only be done using skill.
So I would loop through the hierarchies of the schematics and update/replace 
the cell rom with rom_1. That should work, hence it is some effort. 
But what about e.g. the variant file or other files like the opf etc. this also 
needs to be updated manually, so this will become a pain :(

Does anybody know an already existing solution on how to do this ?

Thanks in Advance

Patrick
