addDesignLppsToTech

graphic addDesignLppsToTech boolean { t | nil }

Description

Creates a layer-purpose pair (LPP) in the technology file when a shape is present in the design but its layer number and purpose number do not correspond to an existing LPP in the technology file. A default packet is used to display shapes on this new LPP.

The default is nil.

• Name of the new layer will be LXXX, where XXX is the layer number.
• Name of the new purpose will be PYYY, where YYY is the purpose number.
