I need to apply scale functions to an existing coil layout.
In fact, I just want to apply the following AEL functions to the AEL artwork to scale the existing design

de_select_all();
de_set_scale(0.8, 0.8); // de_set_scale(scaleX, scaleY);
de_scale(0.0 0.0); // complete the scaling procedure

where scaleX/Y are external parameters for the cell

The problem is that when I select Costumize PCell / Type - AEL Macro - at the bottom it says that The Original Layout is not used unless the AEL function explicitly loads or flattens it.

How do I specify in my artwork.ael that I need to use the current design to do the scaling?
