abutServerOn

layout abutServerOn boolean { t | nil }

Description

Turns automatic abutment and automatic unabutment on and off. Unabutment automatically restores abutted devices when moved apart. This ensures that dropped vias are restored when chained devices are moved apart. It also eliminates errors such as devices with no diffusion overlap on one side.

The default is t. When set to nil, automatic abutment and unabutment are turned off in layout XL, and unabutment retains the abutted device configuration even when the device is unabutted in the layout editor.
