initIOPinLayerNames

layoutXL initIOPinLayerNames string "layer_names"

Description

• Specifies the layers that need to be listed in the Layer column in the IO Pins tab of the Configure Physical Hierarchy Window window (Soft Block mode).
• Filters the layers in the default and selected pin layer lists in the IO Pins tab of the Generate Layout Form form.
  • The Layer Purpose Pair (LPP) list on the Generate Layout form is filtered based on the values specified for the initIOPinLayerNames and initIOPinPurposeNames environment variables. This reduces the displayed LPP list, showing only the values that are supported.
  • For a layer purpose pair to be listed on the form, both the layer name and the purpose name must match. If the filter finds no matches, all the valid layer-purpose pair combinations are displayed.

The default value is "", which means the layers are displayed from virtuosoDefaultExtractorSetup.
