lxStickyNet Property

lxStickyNet boolean { t | nil }

Description

Allows a shape to retain its assigned connectivity even after it has been modified in some way.

Layout XL adds the lxStickyNet property automatically to a shape or via when a net is assigned to that shape using the Add Shape To Net command. The property remains in effect until you:

• Override it with a new net assignment
• Turn it off by setting it to nil
• Remove it using the Edit – Basic – Properties command.

Additionally:

• Choose Edit – Basic –Properties command to manually add the lxStickyNet property.
• For an instance with lvsIgnore Property property to have sticky connectivity, add the lxStickyNet property on the instance or on the instance master.

When the lxStickyNet property is added, it prevents reassignment of the connectivity of gate terminals and non-abutting source and drain terminals by the extractor.

For more information on lxStickyNet, see Interactive Wire Editing in the Virtuoso Space-based Router User Guide.
