    Please can you read the Forum Guidelines before posting? If you re-read your question, there are a large number of unknowns here which make it very difficult to answer. The clearer your question, the more likely it is that somebody can give you a clear answer.

    Which DRC tool are you talking about? If it's an IC tool, it could be:

    1. Diva
    2. Dracula
    3. Assura
    4. PVS
    5. Chameleon
    6. Calibre (not a Cadence tool)
    7. Hercules (not a Cadence tool)
    8. several others

    Or maybe you're talking about the DRD (Design Rule Driven) checking tool part of Virtuoso Layout Suite XL? Or maybe it's not even an IC tool at all?

    Which version are you talking about? 

    When you say "even number", what do you mean? Even number of what? Microns, nanometers, grid units, elephants, bananas? (sorry to be cheeky...)

    Why do you need to check this? It seems an odd requirement.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
