Layout cross section

[Roger Light]

Hi,

Ages ago I asked how it was possible to get a list of all layers at a
point in a layout. The original thread is at
http://groups.google.com/group/comp.cad.cadence/browse_thread/thread/503a417a2bc94e33/b673a46f68360120
if you're interested.

I created a tool to help generate simplistic cross sections of layouts
with the help of that skill code, but don't seem to have mentioned it
here before. It's simplistic because it assumes that all layers are
perfectly planar and are unaffected by the presence/lack of other layers
above/below them. We still find it pretty useful, especially for people
new to layout.

The link is http://atchoo.org/tools/gen_cross_section/

Cheers,

Roger

Looks like a nice little tool. Thanks for sharing it with us.
