klayout - GDS2 chip layout Viewer
- Description:
GDS2 (chip layout) viewer for the chip design engineer.
The main objective was to focus on the basic functionality but adding some
useful features that many, even commercial viewers don't have:
* shows the design as it is
* can animate layers to make them blink or scroll the fill pattern.
* display a layer "marked" by drawing a small cross on all shapes<
All comes wrapped in a nice, Qt based state of the art GUI. Usage of the viewer
is simple and is similar to that of other tools.

Changelog
by matthias@koefferlein.de (2015-12-28):
- Update to 0.24.4
* Enhancement: Layer colors are iterated for named layers without
layer numbers as well. Such layers are created when reading
DXF files for example and all layers had the same color
initially. Now, these layers will be assigned different colors.
* Bugfix: RBA::TilingProcess#threads was not working properly
when assigning a value of 1.
* Bugfix: The perimeter computation now has changed to 64 bit numerics
reducing the risk of numerical overflow. In earlier versions,
the perimeter computation of integer type shapes (polygons,
boxes, regions) was performed with 32 bit length which is
not sufficient to represent total perimeters of full layouts.
* Bugfix: The OASIS writer's S_TOP_CELL standard property now is
set to the correct value when using "Save cell as".
* Bugfix: Some patches are provided for enhanced compatibility with
MacOS. One MacOS-only bug was related to a crash when re-registering
of PCell's while developing then.
* Bugfix: PCell guiding shape parts could not be selected in partial
editing mode using a drawn selection box.
* Enhancement: The color of the guiding shapes can now be configured
individually.
* Bugfix: OASIS reader was not properly associating CELLNAME properties
with cells as the standard requires. Instead CELLNAME properties were
ignored.
* Bugfix: Strict mode compatibility issues in OASIS writer:
File level PROPERTY records were not put right at the beginning of the file,
empty tables were not listed with 0 position, property value strings were
not referenced by ID and the property modal variables were referenced
sometimes after name records (specifically CELLNAME with standard
properties enabled). According to the specification, the name records
reset these variables so this is not correct. Other readers may report
errors for such files.
* Enhancement: OASIS writer file size reduction. Now, the OASIS writer
will opimize the arrangement of cell array instances so that
modal variables can be used for a better compaction.
* Enhancement: During script debugging now the Assistant window is active
even while the debugger is executing a script. The main window is
still inactive however to avoid fatal cross-interactions between
the debugger and the user interface.
* Bugfix: The Python PCell sample was broken.
* Bugfix: slowly bending paths have not been displayed correctly.
* Bugfix: coordinates might have been swapped in the box properties
page when switching from local to absolute coordinates and
back.
* Bugfix: certain ruler styles with independent x and y axis have not
been displayed properly when using a global transformation.
* Enhancement: the performance of "Flatten cell" is enhanced significantly
in cases of many instances.
* Bugfix: DRC output was producing new layers with an empty layer name
selector (no major issue, but confusing).
