minWireOverlap
Applies when two wires on layer1 and layer2 overlap in the same direction. The constraint also specifies the minimum overlap in the length direction along with an optional alignment type. This constraint applies to rectangular shapes only; nonrectangular shapes are ignored.

Specifies the minimum overlap in user units in the length direction. |
|
|
Specifies the minimum overlap in user units in the length direction, indexed by the width of the layer1 wire. |
Optional Parameters
|
Specifies that overlapping layer1 and layer2 wires must have the same direction. When
Type: |

Examples
- Example 1: minWireOverlap with wireAlignment=sameWidth
- Example 2: minWireOverlap with wireAlignment=centerLine and sameDirection=true
Example 1: minWireOverlap with wireAlignment=sameWidth
set_constraint_parameter -name wireAlignment -IntValue 2
set_layerpair_constraint -constraint minWireOverlap \
-layer1 Metal1 -layer2 Metal2 -Value 1.5
Specifies that overlapping Metal1 and Metal2 shapes must have the same width, and their centerlines must be aligned with a minimum overlap of 1.5 user units.
Example 2: minWireOverlap with wireAlignment=centerLine and sameDirection=true
set_constraint_parameter -name wireAlignment -IntValue 1
set_constraint_parameter -name sameDirection -BoolValue true
set_layerpair_constraint -constraint minWireOverlap \
-layer1 Metal1 -layer2 Metal2 -Value 1.5
Specifies that overlapping Metal1 and Metal2 shapes must have the same direction, and their centerlines must be aligned with a minimum overlap of 1.5 user units.
