Creating Assura DRC rule to check that sep of 2 layers is exactly 2 different values

Miguel V

Hello,

I am trying to write a DRC rule that checks that the separation of 2 layers falls within 2 values.  Assume I have 3 shapes on layers L1 L2 L1 each separated by a certain distance and the edges I am checking are parallel to each other.  I need the separation of L1->L2 to be exactly X and I need the separation of L2->L1 to be exactly Y, or vice versa.  I can write a rule using sep for each value, but if I have the correct spacing as I mentioned, one of the separations will always flag.

Thanks.
