\subsubsection{Name}
Place -- Places an instance
\subsubsection{Synopsys}
\begin{verbatim}
Place ( ins, sym, x, y )
\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-Place- function.
\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-x-, \verb-y- : Coordinates of the lower left corner of the abutment box on the instance in the current figure.
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Example}
\begin{verbatim}
Place ( myInst, NOSYM, 0, 0 )
\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] Place : wrong argument for placement type.-\\The symetry given as argument is not correct.
\item \verb-[Stratus ERROR] PLace : x value must be an integer or a float.-\\One of the coordinates is not correct.
\end{itemize}
