Log message:
(cad/layout) Udated 0.26.11 to 0.27 based on wip/klayout by Atsushi Toyokura
0.27 (2021-05-02):
* Enhancements: Numerous new functions for the RBA and pya API
Some highlights:
* "Texts" for text collections (similar for Edges/EdgePairs/Region)
* New modes for blending layout files - see GitHub issue #666
* New function Cell#transform - see GitHub issue #598
* New functions for Image (read, write, clear)
* New functions for Region and Edges correlating with the new DRC features
* Multi-cell hierarchical copy/move of trees - will maintain shared instances
* RBA: iterators are now automatically made available as Enumerable
* All functions having a void return specification now return self \
(allows chaining)
* More functions for manipulating selections (LayoutView#select_all etc.)
* Spline interpolation code available in new "Utils" namespace
* QByteArray support, mapping to Python byte arrays
* MainWindow#set_key_bindings, MainWindow#get_key_bindings, \
MainWindow#set_menu_items_hidden etc.
* New class RecursiveInstanceIterator (similar to RecursiveShapeIterator, \
but acts on instances)
* Deep vs. flat operations do not always flatten out now (flat vs. deep \
does however)
* Global transformations for inputs
* Enhancements: New DRC features
Some highlights:
* Better support for texts - "text layers"
* Combined AND+NOT feature for separating regions into inside and outside part
* "max_vertex_count" and "max_area_ratio" \
configuration options
* "forget" for memory optimization
* Shielding is optional now for some DRC functions
* "interact" now has a count filter
* In verbose more, figure counts and more information is printed
* Generic DRC function and complex DRC operations: for details search \
"Universal DRC" in documentation
* "not_opposite" and "rect_filter" options for some \
DRC functions
* "enclosing" (selects polygons entirely enclosing others)
* New filters for polygons: squares, non_squares, area ratio, bbox aspect \
ratio
* More intuitive specification of projection limits ("projecting \
< 2.um")
* "with_holes" and "without_holes", also with count
* Density check is included now ("with_densitiy", \
"without_density")
* "split_..." functions give interacting/non-interacting sets \
in one step
* Better support for generic transformations as Matrix2d and Matrix3d
* "fill" and "fill_with_left" functions for dummy fill
* NO "connected" feature yet. Sorry. Had to drop it to finish \
this release.
* Enhancements: new LVS features
Some highlights:
* Improved netlist and LVS result browser (infinite-depth browsing)
* Improved circuit match algorithm
* Case insensitive handling of object names for SPICE netlists
* Probe feature fixed in flat mode
* "connect_explicit": for details search \
"connect_explicit" in documentation
* Enhancements: New features for images
Some highlights:
* New menu item: show and hide all images - see GitHub issue #535
* False color nodes now can have a left and right color allowing color steps
* Persistance of images through a special file format: "lyimg" \
(XML based)
* Enhancements: LEF/DEF reader
Some highlights:
* Support for layer map files
* More complete spec support (e.g. FILL, MASK, FOREIGN, DO/BY/STEP ...)
* Several bug fixes, e.g. routing layer switch for VIAs
* Some functions also act on the transient selection (less mouse clicks)
* Enhancements: Layout editing and rulers
Some highlights:
* Object properties now are changed without having to commit the dialogs
* Dockable editor options windows
* "Recently used" list
* A "distribute objects" feature (Edit/Selection/Distribute)
* Snap highlighting
* Mouse tracking cursor indicates grid- and object-snapped location
* Enhancements: Help browser
* Bookmarks
* Search in page (Ctrl+F)
* Enhancement: Improved fill tool
The fill tool now also supports skewed fill pattern repetitions
* Enhancement: Ability to utilize a LayoutView as a Widget
Standalone instantiation of a LayoutView object is
supported now. So it becomes possible to create
custom MainWindow UIs and embed a layout view there.
* Enhancement: Improved layer and cell list filtering and searching
* Enhancement: Experimental 3d (called 2.5d) view of layout
For details search "2.5d View" in documentation.
* Enhancement: Improved performance on sea of instances for OASIS files
Iterated OASIS instances are stored and handled in a leaner way in viewer mode
* Enhancement: Buddy scripts can concatenate files with "+" for input
Concatenation happens by "blending files". Beware of the risk \
this implies.
A new option "--blend-mode" has been introduced for supporting \
overwrite, skip
and variant formation in case of cell name conflicts. See buddy script help.
* Enhancement: Layer maps now support n:m layer mapping
This allows mapping n input layers to one logical layer (merging) and also
one input layer to m logical ones (clone layer). This applies to the
buddy scripts and layer maps inside KLayout's reader.
* Enhancement: include mechanism for easy include of files into DRC/LVS scripts
This is a plain text substitution feature. Don't use it for Ruby or Python
scripts (the preferred way is still require/import). But it's a quick way
to include partial DRC and LVS scripts without having to worry about variable
scope. For details see "Including other files" in the \
documentation under:
KLayout User Manual/Design Rule Check (DRC)/DRC Runsets.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/771
Fixed an issue with QByteArray/QVariant transformation in Qt binding

LVS could not do "connect_implicit" with global nets.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/609
Internal error on net extraction.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/598
Plain transformation of cell missing.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/588
RBA/PYA: Provide event when a net is selected in the netlist browser.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/563
True support for text objects in DRC/LVS (text layers).
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/558
Edges#extents, Texts#extents and EdgePairs#extents now
work hierarchically in deep mode. In DRC, this means,
"extents" is a deep-enabled method now.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/535
Image handling enhancements.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/521
Enhanced API for ObjectInstPath.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/487
Difficult to select specific labels for net name assignment in net extraction.

Log message:
(cad/klayout) Updated 0.26.8 to 0.26.10 ( 0.26.11, 0.27.0 are waiting)
Based on wip/klayout (a little bit old version) by Atzushi Toyokura work.
(pkgsrc)
- rename patch
- Add comment on patches
- more PLIST_SUBST
(upstream changes)
0.26.10 (2020-02-02):
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/720
"Safe save" and backups: when saving files, the file is only \
overwritten after
the save terminated successfully. This will avoid loss of data for full volumes
or network share dropouts. In addition, a configurable number of back files can
be kept (see File/Setup: Application/General).
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/718
GDS export issue fixed (breaking of polygons was filling holes)
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/709
LVS compare enters infinite loop when it encounters two entirely identical \
subcircuits
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/708
Qt binding: missing support for binary strings as QByteArray representative
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/707
QJsonValue's string constructor is ambiguous
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/704
Rational Splines not supported DXF
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/693
MAGIC files won't find subcells when reading from command line
* Bugfix: HTTP stream reading issue with redirect
At least on MacOS a segfault happened when reading HTTP stream data
(e.g. for package manager) from addresses which are redirected.
* Enhancement: Removed %APPDATA% from DLL search path on Windows
This will avoid installation poisoning by the one from %APPDATA%
(which ironically is the default installation path). Eventually
multiple versions can be used in parallel.
0.26.9 (2020-11-27):
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/658
Menu items were not put into the right place on MacOS.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/652
"M" factor scaling was not working for Spice reader.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/651
Fixed an issue with DRC "select".
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/647
Text orientation was not considered properly in search & replace
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/646
A potential crash was fixed happening when a PCell
library is deleted
* Bugfix: Display bug
Cell placements with small magnification factors (such that the
viewport dimensions exceeded the DBU space when seem from inside
the cell) lead to display errors.

(cad/klayout) Updated 0.25.9 to 0.26.8 by Atsushi Toyokura <asteria.at (at) \
gmail.com>
0.26.8 (2020-09-15):
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/639
A new method is available which enables copying of multiple cells
into a target layout while maintaining common subcells are single
cells.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/637
Points have not been selected properly when inside mirrored subcells
in partial edit mode.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/629
Qt5 QTimer timeout signal was not available to Python or Ruby.
This also applied to all "private" signals of Qt5. QTimer is just
one important example for this case.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/617
A problem with pseudo-const Python/Ruby objects in the netlist API
was fixed.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/615
Basic authentication for package manager now uses UTF-8 encoding.
Most servers expect this kind of encoding today. UTF password
characters are supported this way.
0.26.7 (2020-07-07):
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/381 and more
Some bugs fixed that happened specifically on MacOS.
1.) A segfault that happened in LVS
2.) Some classes were not properly registered for usage in scripts.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/493
LVS asserted on MacOS
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/586
As a safety feature, the stream writers now refuse to write layouts
with cells carrying the same names. Writing such layers would result
in corrupted or invalid layout files.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/589 (tentative)
On Anaconda-based builds for MacOS 10.15 (Catalina) a loss of instances
was observed. This could be traced down to compiler/library incompatibilities
but not further.
* Enhancements: %GITHUB%/issues/591
Two enhancements in the macro editor:
1.) A crash happening when adding a new location was fixed
2.) The template selection popup can now be disabled by dismissing the
tip dialog.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/592
Reading a file into a layout with unnamed layers caused problems with
layer mapping specs.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/596
Library#_destroy was crashing the application. As this function must not
be called, it's rerouted to "nothing" for backward compatibility.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/603
The "adjust origin" feature now allows specifying the target
coordinates for the adjustment.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/610
An internal error happened for certain hierarchical configurations on
netlist extraction.
* Enhancement: LVS netlist compare
The algorithm was improved to provide better reproducibility. The
detection of matching paths in the presence of ambiguities was
improved.
In addition, the netlist compare now favours net names for resolving
ambiguities. So if nets are named the same in the layout and the
schematic, ambiguities are resolved based on these names. This is
usually more efficient. A new function is available to turn this
feature off: "consider_net_names(false)".
0.26.6 (2020-06-05):
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/522
Skip comment lines with // in RVE DB reader
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/547
Doc fixes, better error messages on some Shape methods
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/555
Using 64bit coordinates on RVE reader to avoid overflow

PCell
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/449
The Qt windows styling plugin is now installed too on Windows.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/448

* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/407
Variables can be used in technology base path now
- $(tech_name) -> substituted by the technology name
- $(tech_dir) -> substituted by the directory the technology file \
is stored in
- $(tech_file) -> substituted by the absolute path to the tech file
- $(appdata_path) -> substituted by KLayout's home directory (e.g. \
~/.klayout)
- $(env('X')) -> substituted by the environment variable $X
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/406
DRC edge layers: AND between intersecting edges gives point-like
markers indicating the intersection points
* Enhancement: netlist object properties
User properties can be attached to the following netlist objects
now: Pin, Device, Circuit, Net and SubCircuit. Properties are
key/value pairs (keys and values can be strings can be strings
or numbers).
The property-enabled classes use "NetlistObject" as the base
class now. NetlistObject provides "set_property" to set or reset
a property and "property" to retrieve one.
Properties are persisted in L2N and LVSDB files and written to
layout shapes on "build_nets".
* Enhancement: more detailed progress
On certain nested operations, a double or triple progress bar is
shown indicating the progress of nested operations.
0.26.1 (2019-11-06):
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/354
Buddy scripts did segfault.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/352
LVS: equivalent_pins required the cell to be present.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/353
Session files: "file-path" and "rdb-file" behavior \
was inconsistent.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/358
"strm2oas" was writing GDS files.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/363
It was possible to produce bad polygons while drawing.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/372
pymod build failed with HAVE_64BIT_COORD=1.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/376
Parameters UI callback invoking.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/368
Segfault with layer list manipulation while iterating.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/386
"None" is a reserved keyword for Python binding - use \
"None_".
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/382
Possibility to copy user property value.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/387
Salt: Python version can be specified in "api-version".
Other requirements can be specified too.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/392
Layers "Style" sub-pane was malformed.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/394
Even bigger font sizes for rulers and labels for the 4k age:
Now there is "XLarge", "XXLarge" and \
"XXXLarge" as well.
* Enhancement: %GITHUB%/issues/393
DRC syntax errors are now shown in their original code line
of the DRC script.
* Bugfix: %GITHUB%/issues/400
Snap feature wasn't working for deep regions in certain use
cases.
* Enhancement: new "scale_and_snap" methods
These methods allow scaling and snapping of layouts. Scaling
is supported by a rational factor. After scaling, snapping can
be applied to an integer grid. There are two incarnations.
Region#scale_and_snap (or Region#scaled_and_snapped): this is
a flat implementation which allows anisotropic scaling/snapping
as well.
And there is Layout#scale_and_snap which is a fully
hierarchical scale-and-snap feature. The latter does not support
anisotropic scaling/snapping, but works hierarchically without
opening gaps. It operates on a top cell and on all layers.
* Enhancement: new Region#pull_* methods and DRC features
"pull_*" is a class of methods that allows rehierarchisation
of shapes. These methods act similar to "interacting", but
the other way around: instead of delivering interacting
shapes of the first argument, it will deliver shapes of
the second argument. For example, "a.pull_interacting(b)"
will deliver polygons of b which interact with polygons
of a. As a side effect, the polygons of b will be stored
hierarchically close to the polygons of a. This provides
a way to "re-hierarchise" layout.
The full class of methods and DRC functions involve:
Region#pull_interacting, Region#pull_inside, Region#pull_overlapping
and the same functions for DRC.
"pull_interacting" is also available for the Edges class
and edge layers in DRC.
* Enhancement: Net tracer bug fix for heavily decomposed polygons
The net tracing feature now can operate on heavily decompose
polygons as well. Such layouts can be created by using a low
max. vertex count on GDS write. The problem were small
triangles with an area of 0.5 square DBU.
* Enhancements: General fixes of deep DRC mode
Some inconsistencies with merged/raw mode have been
removed. Performance was enhanced in a few places.
Multithreaded mode now works more reliably.
* Enhancements/bugfixes: various LVS improvements
The backtracking algorithm should work more reliable
in cases of ambiguities and floating nets or pins.
Performance should be better in some cases.
LVS script structure is less rigid now. "cheats" to
forcibly ignore hierarchy interactions for some
cells (useful for SRAM layout for example).
Still there is some work to do.

in a hierarchical fashion - i.e. trying to maintain
as much from the original hierarchy as possible.
* Enhancements: Antenna checks for DRC
DRC now got an antenna check feature. Netlist extraction
is the basis for this feature.
* Enhancement: Hierarchical mode in XOR tool and "strmxor"
The XOR tool and the "strmxor" buddy tool provide
switches to enable hierarchical mode. These options
are considered experimental currently as XOR between
two different layouts was not the implementation goal.
* Enhancement: Netlist extraction
KLayout supports extraction of netlists from a layout.
This is the first step towards LVS. This feature includes
an infrastructure providing netlist data structures
(with Ruby/Python bindings), Netlist readers and writers
(Spice format), device recognition and a netlist browser.
* Enhancement: LVS
The LVS feature is based on the netlist extraction capabilities.
It adds netlist vs. netlist compare and the corresponding
infrastructure.
LVS is a new script environment that is based on the DRC feature
and extends the DRC script language by LVS elements.
* Enhancement: Command line option -mn to open netlist database
* Enhancement: Net tracer "trace all nets"
Based on the netlist extraction feature, an alternative mode
for net tracing is provided. With "trace all nets", no a single
but all nets are traced at once. Probing then happens in the
final nets extracted rather than providing the seed shape.
"Trace all nets" operates in hierarchical mode and therefore
usually is faster and has a smaller memory footprint when
extracting huge nets such as power nets.
* Enhancement: Library browser
The library browser is a dockable tool window which shows
all libraries installed. Use drag and drop to place a library
cell from the library browser in edit mode.
* Enhancement: Layout query enhancements
Layout queries (aka "Search and replace") now allow specification
of Variables when using the script API. The performance of queries has been
enhanced in the case of cell tree recursion.
* Enhancement: Gridline colors
The grid lines (or dots, depending on the style) can now be given
different colors for axes, grid lines and the ruler inset.
* Enhancement: Multiple files on import
The "File/Import/Other files into current" feature now allows
importing multiple files into the current layout.
* Enhancement: Python standalone module
KLayout supports production of standalone Python modules
which provide the same features than the "pya" module but
for use without the KLayout binary. If installed properly,
"import klayout" will pull in all modules. "import \
klayout.db"
will pull in the database part.
Deployment on PyPI is supported.
* Enhancement: Modal help dialog from modal windows
When using Assistant links in the UI, the assistant now is shown
as a modal window when called from a modal dialog. Before, the
Assistant window wasn't usable in this case.
