lxGetSignifDigits

layoutXL lxGetSignifDigits int { 0 | 3 ... 14 }

Description

Controls the number of significant digits used by Layout XL when calculating the value of layout CDF parameters.

When enabled lxGetSignifDigits overrides the setting of aelGetSignifDigits for calculations in the layout cellview. This lets you specify a different precision to be used in layout cellview calculations; for example, those involving parameterized cells.

Valid values are 0 to 14. The default is 0, which means that the environment variable is off. The higher the value you set, the more precise are the values used in the calculations.

Arguments

0	lxGetSignifDigits is disabled.
1 ... 14	An integer specifying the number of significant digits used by Layout XL. The minimum value is 1 and the maximum value 14. The higher the value, the more precise the values used in calculations.

GUI Equivalent

Command:	Options – Connectivity (Parameters tab)
Field:	Use significant digits when calculating parameter values (Connectivity Form)
