placing welltap between every two cells

Hello,

does anybody know how to place extra cell between any two cells while placing the design in Encounter. Let's say I have a welltap cell and I need to place it between every two cells in whole design. 

Thank you in advance

Jiri

    Hi, Well taps could be placed in any design in check-board fashion, which mean that the cells which tap the standard cells will be having a particular limit (distance) and this number can be provided by the senior engineer. The default rule is that the min distance should be 60 micron. So, if we place the design in checker- board manner we could reduce the limit to 29 micron to obtain pessimism.
