createWireMode

layout createWireMode cyclic { "unknown" | "paths" | "segments" | "Paths" | "Segments" }

Description

You can create wires as paths or pathSegs (Segments). Paths are not supported by Innovus as part of a route element. When saving data to Innovus you must use pathSegs rather than paths. Using paths for non-orthogonal routing, you can create off-grid vertices, depending on the width and angle being used. You can create on grid 45 degree wires with pathSegs. PathSegs cannot be used for routing to any angle and are limited to orthogonal and diagonal routing. The default is segments.
