* Implementated patch as suggested by issue-1047
* Implementing blend-mode for LEF/DEF for a first solution for issue-1048
* Added testcase, fixed other tests
* Issue-1050 fixed - now REGION, BLOCKAGE and DIEAREA are relevant from mapping file, nothing else
* Bug fixes
* Experimental: DEF multipart paths
* Experimental: ignore LEF wire extension, ignore PATTERNNAME
* Implemented PATTERNNAME in DEF instead of LEF ..
* Implemented nondefaultrule vias
* LEF/DEF: non-defaultrule vias need a name suffix.
* Refined solution for NDR via names, updated test data
* Updated test data
* Multiple map files and 'REGIONS FENCE' + 'REGIONS GUIDE' layer mapping entries.
* Added test data, updated doc.
* Some enhancements and feedback
REGIONS in map files -> REGION
REGION NONE for map files (maps REGIONs which are neither GUIDE or FENCE)
Bugfix: VIA with ORIGIN
No via cell name prefix by default for buddy tools
* Simplified buddy tool options for LEF/DEF property names
Dropped --lefdef-dont-produce-instance-names,
--lefdef-dont-produce-pin-names and --lefdef-dont-produce-net-names
options. Instead, these options have to be enabled by giving
the respective property names.
Writing the property names takes some space and these
options are simply confusing and redundant.
* Issue a warning about missing cut geometry for a DEF via with PATTERNNAME (which is ignored)
* Fixed issue-1065
* Opportunity fix: library selection box listed libraries with technology even though no technology is selected.
* Opportunity: show PCell errors on new error layer. Previously, errors were only shown when the PCell had at least a single layer parameter
The error text is drawn together with guiding shapes. Disabling guiding shapes will
turn off error display.
* Opportunity: fixed an issue when reloading a library immediately after loading a layout: in this case, the library connection got lost and cells were substituted by static ones
* Opportunity: added a layout cleanup for the following case: a layout is loaded without the library present - giving defunct cells. Then the library is registered and defunct cells are reconnected.
* Some doc fixes as preparation for PDF generation
* Some doc bug fixes and enhancements for PDF manual generation
* Fixed a number of invalid references found during PDF generation
* Enable PCellDeclarationHelper doc for help system
* Fixed doc text
* Fixed some doc issues with invalid links etc.
* First step for solution:
Problem was: the ambiguity resolver was making decisions which later resulted in
a name conflict. Later on, another branch of the backtracking algorithm came
across the same situation but decided based on names, creating an conflict.
First part of the solution is to establish the backtracking information
during ambiguity resolution and using that rather than an alternative branch
later on. This avoids this conflict, but does not favor names as mandated
by the "use_names" flag. This will be the second step of the solution.
* Bugfixed solution (partially)
* Introducing third pass in netlist compare
The second pass is "ambiguity resolution by name" and
is skipped if "consider_net_names" is false. The third
pass then is ignoring the names.
* Bugfix
* Comment fixed, test updates
* Added tests
* Added test data variant for CentOS 8
* Fixed issue-1011 by using single-point polygons for texts in deep mode. Tests need fixing.
* Updated tests (text become a single point)
* Added test for issue-1011
* PyPI deployment: corrected branch filter
* skip redundant points in partial edit, but not colinear ones
* Polygon transformation now preserves raw points
* Providing a "refresh" function for triggering a refresh from inside the lib
Some other glitches were fixed too:
* LibraryManager wasn't thread-safe
* Library destructor wasn't unregistering
* Crash when re-registering the same library again
* In LibrariesTest normalization of layouts must not include
re-creation of library references to avoid side effects.
Save without context.
* Added missing files
* Fixed unit tests.
Fixed some more glitches while doing so:
* cell.name (gsi) was giving "basic_name", now it's changed to the
internal name to be consistent with "name=". The "functional name"
is still available as "basic_name".
* The basic name was rendering "<defunct>..." for defunct cells
and has been changed to the functional name. Otherwise this
is not accessible.
* WIP: first attempt to fix issue-983
* WIP: bugfixes
* Fixed a problem with displaying empty cell dimensions, one warning
* Another fix: don't allow proxy cells to be selected in the instance properties dialog. This creates a confusing behaviour
* Fixed a few flaws in the cell selection scheme on the instance properties dialog.
* Early warning when trying to build a recursive hierarchy.
* Another fix: avoid too much undo in case of errors thrown during 'apply' followed by 'cancel'
* Fixed issue-983 solution
* Fixed the modification status of PCell parameters for 'apply to all'
Adds variants to size/sized which take a vector instead
of dx, dy and where the mode parameter is optional. So far
anisotropic sizing had to come with a mode argument.
The bug was that while iterating a Region during the gate traversal,
the "select_interacting" was triggering a sort() which changed the
order.
Solution is to pre-sort when iterators are issued also when the
iterator is non-region selecting. This way, plain and region query
iterators can be used together. In addition, the dirty flag scheme
of Cell+Shapes was cleaned up a little for bboxes.
