GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT.3(October 1, 1997)	    GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT.3(October 1, 1997)

NAME
     GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT	- place a physical instance in the current figure at the
     left of the "reference instance"

SYNOPSIS
     #include <genlib.h>
     void GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT(modelname, insname, symetry)
     char *modelname, *insname;
     char symetry;

PARAMETERS
     modelname		 Name of the layout figure to be instantiated

     insname		 Name to be given to the instance on the model

     symetry		 Geometrical operation to be performed on  the	instance
			 before being placed

DESCRIPTION
     PLACE_LEFT  add  an instance of model modelname in the current layout cell.
     The bottom right corner of the abutment box of the instance is placed,  af-
     ter  being  symetrized and/or rotated, toward the bottom left corner of the
     abutment box of the "reference instance". The newly placed instance becomes
     the "reference instance".
     The insname is the name given to the instance and must be unique at a given
     hierarchy level.
     The symetry argument can take eight legal values :

     NOSYM		 no geometrical operation is performed

     SYM_Y		 Y becomes -Y, that means toward X axe symetry

     SYM_X		 X becomes -X, that means toward Y axe symetry

     SYMXY		 X becomes -X, Y becomes -Y

     ROT_P		 a positive 90 degrees rotation take place

     ROT_M		 a negative 90 degrees rotation take place

     SY_RP		 Y becomes -Y, and then a positive 90  degrees	rotation
			 take place

     SY_RM		 Y  becomes  -Y, and then a negative 90 degrees rotation
			 take place

     The model of the figure to be placed must be available, on disk or in  mem-
     ory.   The  path  to  the	library is specified in the MBK_CATA_LIB (1) and
     MBK_WORK_LIB (1) environment variables, and its  format  is  given  by  the
     MBK_IN_PH (1) environment variable.

ERRORS
     "GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT impossible : missing GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG"
	    No figure has been yet specified by a call to DEF_PHFIG. So it isn't
	    possible  to  place  an instance inside it.  you must call DEF_PHFIG
	    before any other layout action.
     "GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT impossible : No previous instance"
	    There are no instances placed in the current layout  cell,	so  it's
	    impossible to know where to place from. Use a PLACE call before.
     "illegal addphins : transformation is x in insname"
	    The  symetry  parameter  is not one of the define given, but has the
	    integer value x.

EXAMPLE
     #include <genlib.h>
     main()
     {
	  /* Create a figure to work on  */
	  GENLIB_DEF_PHFIG("cell");
	  /* Place two instances */
	  GENLIB_PLACE("grbdo_3","ins1", NOSYM, 0L, 0L);
	  /* negative placement values are allowed */
	  GENLIB_PLACE_LEFT("grxwh_k","ins2", SYMXY);
	  /* Save all that on disk */
	  GENLIB_SAVE_PHFIG();
     }
