./cad/klayout, Simple GDS and OASIS file viewer and Editor

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 0.29.8nb3, Package name: klayout-0.29.8nb3, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Although a comparatively simple piece of software, a layout viewer is not
only just a tool for the chip design engineer. Today design's complexity
require not only a simple "viewer". Rather, a viewer is the microscope
through which the engineer looks at the design.

There are numerous viewers available, but sadly there are not many which
satisfy a few basic requirements. Most of them are commercial and
expensive. If there is need for a simple, yet powerful viewer - here it is.

Log message:
(cad/klayout) Updated 0.28.17 to 0.29.0

0.29.0           (2024-04-01):
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1662 Strong default grids

* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1656 Display-->Goto Position dialog
  should accept + as well as - for number prefixes
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1651 Errors when adding polygons with 4 points
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1644 DRC: some issues with edge layers
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1643 DRC: Feeding the same layer to
  two-layer operations in deep mode does not render the desired result
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1638 let klayout marker browser read
  strmxor .. xor.gds.gz, xor.oas result files
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1637 XOR optimization for prBoundary layer
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1632 rdb python/ruby module: modifing items
  not possible as they are const
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1598 LVS - Support for Soft Connections
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1586 Refactoring transformation conversion
  functions for complex transformation
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1583 Add possibility to customize main
  window title
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1513 Update Qt version for Qt bindings
  to 5.12.12 and 6.2.1
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1356 Instance Property form: Array Instance
  col/row would be more intuitive then the current row/col
* Enhancement: New ruler type "auto measure along edge"
* Enhancement: Trigger ruler measurement on mouse hovering transiently
* Enhancement: Min and max value bounds for PCell parameters in editor
  The condition is not strictly enforced - for example it is not checked when
  changing parameters programmatically. For that, use "coerce_parameters".
  Still, this feature is an editing aid.
* Bugfix: Pixel garbage in color selector button with "Auto" color selected
* Bugfix: DRC/LVS - connect_explicit did not accept an array of nets
  as single argument
* Bugfix: 'edge outside polygon' now consistently ignores the border
  of the polygon
* Bugfix: Warning level was ignored for some warnings in LEF/DEF reader
* Bugfix: Netlist reader: anonymous circuits are not checked for known parameters
* Enhancement: LVS - Supporting remote must-connect connections
  So far, must-connect connections had to be made one level up in the hierarchy
  or promoted further using labels and such. Now, must-connect connections
  can be made at any point up in the hierarchy.
* Bugfix: LVS - do not waste too much time analyzing failed matches
* Enhancement: LVS - LVS: Consider net names identical that differ
  in signal type suffix only - e.g. 'NET:I' is identical to 'NET'
* Enhancement: OASIS reader will produce layers that are listed in layer table
  but empty. Previously, empty layers were never created, even if listed in
  the layer table.
* Enhancement: Reading from HTTP streams and pipes now supports
  automatic .gz uncompression
* Enhancement: New DRC Features
  - "edges" method allows selecting convext/concave/step edges
  - Interaction count for edge/edge edge/polygon "interacting"
  - Improved handling of dots (degenerated edges) - these are now
    passed through the edge/edge and edge/polygon booleans and
    participate in "interact". This enables selecting corners and
    using them to select edges.
* Enhancement: New RBA/pya Features
  - Main window title: MainWindow#title (property)
  - LayoutView#is_dirty?
  - Triangulation: Region#delaunay
  - Quality rasterizer: Region#rasterize
  - Generic edge and polygon filters and operators support hierarchical processing
    with Python or Ruby callbacks: classes EdgePairFilter, EdgePairOperator,
    EdgePairToPolygonOperator, EdgePairToEdgeOperator, EdgeFilter, EdgeOperator,
    EdgeToPolygonOperator, EdgeToEdgePairOperator, PolygonFilter, PolygonOperator
    PolygonToEdgeOperator, PolygonToEdgePairOperator, TextFilter, TextOperator,
    TextToPolygonOperator
    Methods: EdgePairs#filter, EdgePairs#filtered, EdgePairs#process, \ 
EdgePairs#processed,
    same for Edges, Regions and Texts
  - Polygon#split, Polygon#break, same for DPolygon, SimplePolygon, DSimplePolygon
  - Keyword arguments for Python, Ruby and Expressions
  - You can now also use "klayout" package inside the application \ 
(same code
    for Python module and application) - i.e. "import klayout.db"
  - Synonyms: connect/disconnect for events for better compatibility with PyQt5

Log message:
(cad/klayout) Updated 0.28.13 to 0.28.14

0.28.14          (2023-12-08):
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1563 Duplicated Tabs in the Macro Development Tool
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1560 git+https package installation on windows fails
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1559 (partial) Move function not respecting some diagonals
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1549 Layout.error_layer now available in recursive \ 
shape search
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1542 KLayout crashes on exit
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1535 Support pathlib.Path in Python API
  Implicitly converts objects to strings using "str(object)" (Python) \ 
or "object.to_s" (Ruby).
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1533 KLayout crashing with two consecutive calls of \ 
the same LayoutView::show_layout command
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/1531 When symlinking a .def to a target without .def \ 
suffix, file can't be loaded
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1530 polygon from 2 size tuple points
  The effect of this feature is pretty basic: tuples or lists are used as constructor
  arguments for implicitly creating an object in place of them. Hence, \ 
"(x,y)" can be
  used instead of a vector or a point. In some cases, this leads to ambiguities and
  the implicit resolution will fail however.
  Specifically a list of size-2 tuples can be passed to the "points" \ 
arguments of
  Polygon and Path.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/1528 LEF: Implement LEF58_WIDTHTABLE
* Enhancement: new methods (D)Edge#euclidian_distance and (D)EdgePair#distance
* Bugfix: package download dialog: mute an assertion, less questions for \ 
re-running macros
* Enhancement: reading $KLAYOUT_GIT_PROXY_HTTP for proxy URL in Git downloads
* Bugfix: cheats were not enabled for edges and (implicit) polygon merges such \ 
as for "sized"
* Bugfix: more consistent behavior for Marker Browser / Scan Shapes
  - Scan Shapes Hierarchical will scan from current cell, not all cells
  - Marker browser shows markers propertly also in descended mode
  - Marker database description of shown in selection box
* Bugfix: Search feature in macro editor does not jump back to first position
* Bugfix: "Trace All Nets"
  - Asks for stack now in case of multiple stacks (previously: took that from \ 
"Trace Nets" dialog)
  - Skips symbols which are not used (previously: extracted them as disconnected \ 
layers)
