Batch Process to Rotate Border and View

Question

I need to figure out a batch process for many files to rotate a border 180 degrees (which is a cell), rotate the view 180 degrees, fit view then save settings but I cannot figure out the commands. Any help would be appreciated.

Chuck, 
 These keyins will select the cell&hellip; 
 MDL SILENTLOAD SELECTBY DIALOG SELECT TYPE NONE SELECTBY TYPE CELL SELECTBY CELLNAME <cellname> SELECTBY EXECUTE 
 Determining the point to rotate about may be difficult If all the border cells have been placed with different origins. This example shows rotating about the element center/origin. Depending on the origin, this may or may not get you what you&rsquo;re looking for. (XY=0,0 is simply issuing a data point to accept the rotation) 
 AA=180 ROTATE SET ITEM TOOLSETTINGS ROTATEABOUTORIGINTOGGLE=1 XY=0,0 
 If you don&rsquo;t want to rotate about the center or origin, and know the point you to rotate about you could do something like this, where XY= the point to rotate about. 
 AA=180 ROTATE XY=17,11 
 These will rotate the view, fit, and save settings. 
 ROTATE VIEW RELATIVE 180 SELVIEW 1 FIT ALL SELVIEW 1 FILEDESIGN 
 Hope that points you in the right direction.
