G-Spec Builder Form

Use the G-Spec Builder form to build own geometry specifications (g-specs) using temporary layers. These temporary layers are then translated into the correct g-spec syntax.

Field Description

Result

Specifies the layer on which the resulting shapes from the Boolean operation will be placed.

You can do one of the following:

  • Select a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a temporary layer.

Layer 1

Specifies the layer of the layer-purpose pair being used for defining the geometry specification.

You can do one of the following:

  • Select a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a temporary layer.

Purpose 1

Specifies an al field. As above, the layer or layer-purpose pair must be present in the technology file.

Operator

Selects an operator to use in the Boolean operation. The size operator accepts a float number rather than another layer-purpose pair as an argument. In this case, the layer field already defined in the technology file is editable.

Layer 2

Specifies the layer of the second layer-purpose pair being used for defining the geometry specification.

You can do one of the following:

  • Select a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a layer that exists in the technology file.
  • Manually enter the name of a temporary layer.

Purpose 2

Specifies an al field where you can specify the name of a purpose. The layer or the layer-purpose pair must be present in the technology file.
