Hi Mathias -
I think some time ago I saw examples of "projects" in your gallery page illustrating movie/animation capabilities of klayout, as well as layouts with continuous color gradients - are they gone forever? Can you bring them back?
Thanks,
Max

Hi Max,
there never was "movie animation" or "color gradient" support. So there is nothing gone :-)
It is possible to animate the layout by employing Ruby scripting (i.e. http://klayout.de/forum/comments.php?DiscussionID=252&page=1#Item_2). Color gradients may be emulated by splitting the layout into many layers are assigning different colors to them (i.e. http://klayout.de/rba_examples.html#example5).
Maybe you are referring to these techniques?
Matthias
yes, these two examples (scripts) is exactly what I was looking for - thanks a lot!
I modified slightly the script for the color gradients, to apply the "jet" colormap, as it provides a better visual, in my opinion (http://www.metastine.com/?p=7).
