Control Layout smart snap ruler

psill00

Not to post it here or in the  Custom IC Design. 

I would prefer a  skill method to control the ruler to what layers and edges, centerlines, etc.

Is there an environment variable to turn off smart snap or a way to control what edge the ruler snaps?

 

Thanks

     Hi,

    There is a layout environment variable to control the target:

    layout rulerSnapTarget cyclic "Edges"

    Choices are from: "None" "Edges" "Points" "Edges and Points". You can set this through SKILL, e.g.

    leSetEnv("rulerSnapTarget" "Points")

    I'm not sure about turning it off completely, perhaps that is the "None" setting?

    Hope this helps.

    Lawrence.
