leSnapGridHorizontal

leSnapGridHorizontal string f_pitch f_offset f_offsetFlippedOrientation

Defines a horizontal grid to snap devices, standard cells, block-level cells, and passives with orientations R0, MY, or R180. You can define this property either on the cell master or as an optional override on the instance.

• f_pitch: Specifies the grid pitch.
• f_offset: Specifies the grid offset.
• f_offsetFlippedOrientation (optional): Specifies the offset for instances with flipped orientations. If not specified, the value is considered to be equal to f_offset.

The lower-left corner of the instance PR boundary is considered the reference for instance snapping. In the absence of a PR boundary, the instance origin is the reference.

Example

dbCreateProp(master_cellView "leSnapGridHorizontal" "string" "3 5 1")

;; Override the master’s property

dbCreateProp(instance "leSnapGridHorizontal" "string" "4 5 1")
