1♣ (1nt)
----- 2♣ weak majors
----- 2♦ transfer to ♥
----- 2♥ transfer to ♠
----- 2♠ transfer to ♣
----- 2N transfer to ♦
----- X penalty

can you play the same over a 1♦ opening? why not

Nor do I; perhaps one you could attach your name to.

If you are interested in an overcall structure over 1m then:
X - call it a Power Double rather than penalty
After 1♣
2♣ 4x5x or weak 2M
2♦ x45x
2♥ 45xx
2♠ weak 2♠ min

After 1♦
2♦ weak 2M
2♥ 45xx or x4x5
2♠ 4xx5

Continuations over X can be systematic if you play a strong NT. Those after a 1m overcall are trickier with a game going hand, but these are rare.
