Based on the findings of stripe skyrmions and the metastability of a state of an arbitrary number of skyrmions, precisely controlled manipulation of stripe skyrmions in pre-designed structures and mutual transformation between helical states and skyrmion crystals (SkXs) are demonstrated in chiral magnetic films. As a proof of the concept, we show how to use patterned magnetic fields and spin-transfer torques (STTs) to generate nematic and smectic stripe phases, as well as UST mosaic from three curved stripe skyrmions. Cutting one stripe into many pieces and coalescing several skyrmions into one by various external fields are good ways to transform helical states and SkXs from each other.
