Hello Matthias,

Klayout is quite nice tool.

I have one proposal for it, it will be extremely useful if there is a logo generator under Klayout.
Generally it have to take as a parameters :
Layer
letters width
letters height
letters lines width
Minimum Layer width (from DRC point of view)
Minimum layer spacing (from DRC point of view)

And to be on-grid

Best regards,

tyanata

    Hi tyanata,

    you mean a text generator?

    Maybe you want to have a look into the TEXT PCell - this one generates a text. It does not precisely have the parameters you as for, but it features a bias option which allows to adjust the final line width to be compliant with your design rules. You can also install new fonts if you don't like the one provided.

    For more details see http://klayout.de/doc/about/basic_lib.html#h2-44.

    Hello Matthias,

    Thanks for the answer, how to load this basic library.
    I do not see such menu, I have Klayout 0.23.8

    Best regards,

    Hi tyanata,

    that is not a menu function. It's a PCell. PCells are placed like ordinary cells (choose BASIC library and cell TEXT when placing that cell). You can configure the text and the parameters on the "PCell" tab of the cell instance properties.

    Thanks Mathias,

    I've found it:
    Instance > Instance tab > Library: Basic, then click "..." button and choose TEXT

    Best regards,
