Okay.
What is available strongly depends in the Python version your KLayout instance comes with. If you want to have a specific version with specific capabilities, you'll need to build KLayout against it.
Another option is to use the klayout module from PyPI with your favorite Python. If you're happy with the database part it will be sufficient.

Thanks for the reply I am currently using Anaconda with python 3.8
So how exactly do I use the PyPI module with klayout ?

Please try "pip install klayout".
You can use "import klayout.db as pya" to get the "pya" namespace. But it will just provide you with the layout manipulation API.

Matthias,
I have solved the Protocol module issue based on the
following https://pypi.org/project/typing-extensions/
1) download https://pypi.org/project/typing-extensions/#files
https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/16/06/0f7367eafb692f73158e5c5cbca1aec798cdf78be5167f6415dd4205fa32/typing_extensions-3.7.4.3.tar.gz .
2) Extract the tar file then change to the directory typing_extensions-3.7.4.3
find either the src_py2 or src_py3 , depending on python version used in Klayout,
cd to either src dir
3) then copy typing_extensions, to C:\Users....\AppData\Roaming\KLayout\lib\python3.7
I have tested and this works this could be added to Salt but I do not know how
this opens up all kinds of possibilities .
Again thanks for providing this great tool
Regards
Tracy
Code as follows based on Klayout 0.26.9
Hi Tracy,
thanks for sharing this code and the recipe for installing the extension.

Anytime to help the user community ,
We all learn as we go with this great tool.
Now if I could get EasyGui to work in the same way
Very good
BTW: in the recent 0.26.10 version, I have included "typing" in the Windows installation.
Best regards,
Matthias
