Hello,
I am an electrical engineer working on embedded passive components.
In fact I have a 3D model which I have already converted into 2D
(allegro format DRA through a code).
But the DRA I got has no pins (there are no Pads in Allegro) and I have
to assign pins myself (input/output points).
In fact I gave several turns to make an inductor and copper plates on
layers to create a capacitor for my project. Now I want to use them to
be treated as standalone symbols and link them with my netlist.
Does anyone have any idea about SKILL code or any workaround to define
pins to those structures in allegro.
Regards,
Sam

Thanks for the skill program.
I've used it but there is a problem of offset for the texts rotated.
Any idea to remove this inconvenient?
For the spin I know this function but you have to do it one by one.
Regards
Samuel

OK, I'll come clean. I wrote it ages ago. Hasn't been used in a while,
but I know it worked at one point.
Save your board before you run it!

Dunno if there's something already in existance that fits the bill but
SKILL could handle this fairly easily.
1) gather up all text objects
2) sift out REF DES/ASSEMBLY_TOP, REF DES/ASSEMBLY_BOTTOM, REF
DES/SILKSCREEN_TOP and REF DES/SILKSCREEN_BOTTOM into a top_text_list
and a bot_text_list
3) develop a subroutine that , given an object's angle, returns the
quadrant of the angle ( this is to catch text that doesn't fall exactly
at 0/90/180/270 )
4) foreach text obj in each list,
determine quadrant
save text data in a struct
set new angle in struct based on quadrant
delete existing text obj
create new text obj using struct
