\subsubsection{Name}
PlaceRight -- Places an instance at the right of the "reference instance"
\subsubsection{Synopsys}
\begin{verbatim}
PlaceRight ( ins, sym, offsetX, offsetY )
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Description}
Placement of an instance.\\
\indent The instance has to be instantiated in the method \verb-Netlist- in order to use the \verb-PlaceTop- function.\\
\indent The bottom left corner of the abutment box of the instance is placed, after beeing symetrized and/or rotated, toward the bottom right corner of the abutment box of the "reference instance". The newly placed instance becomes the "reference instance".
\subsubsection{Parameters}
\begin{itemize}
\item \verb-ins- : Instance to place.
\item \verb-sym- : Geometrical operation to be performed on the instance before beeing placed.\\The \verb-sym- argument can take eight legal values :
\begin{itemize}
\item \verb-NOSYM- : no geometrical operation is performed
\item \verb-SYM_Y- : Y becomes -Y, that means toward X axe symetry
\item \verb-SYM_X- : X becomes -X, that means toward Y axe symetry
\item \verb-SYMXY- : X becomes -X, Y becomes -Y
\item \verb-ROT_P- : a positive 90 degrees rotation takes place
\item \verb-ROT_M- : a negative 90 degrees rotation takes place
\item \verb-SY_RP- : Y becomes -Y, and then a positive 90 degrees rotation takes place
\item \verb-SY_RM- : Y becomes -Y, and then a negative 90 degrees rotation takes place
\end{itemize}
\item \verb-offsetX- (optionnal) : An offset is put horizontally. The value given as argument must be a multiple of PITCH
\item \verb-offsetY- (optionnal) : An offset is put vertically. The value given as argument must be a multiple of SLICE
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Example}
\begin{verbatim}
Place ( myInst1, NOSYM, 0, 0 )
PlaceRight ( myInst2, NOSYM )
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Errors}
Some errors may occur :
\begin{itemize}
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] Placement : the instance doesn't exist.-\\The instance must be instanciated in order to be placed.
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] Placement : the first argument is not an instance.-
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] Placement : the instance is already placed.-\\One can not place an instance twice
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] PlaceRight : no previous instance.-\\One can use \verb-PlaceRight- only if a reference instance exist. Use a \verb-Place- call before.
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] PlaceRight : wrong argument for placement type.-\\The symetry given as argument is not correct.
\end{itemize}
