Hi,
I tried to setup a layer stack by using layer names instead of gds numbers as described in the help page. I have layer names with colons to specify the datatype.
E.g.:
13/0 -> metal1:drawing
But it is not possible to reference to layer names which includes a colon. Maybe this can be fixed in a new klayout version?
I tried escaping with backslash but I get an error (red input field).
regards,
Grandement.

Hello,
Not sure what is allowed but I would stick to alphanumeric characters and the underscore character "_", the same as for variables in Ruby...
Cheers,
Tomas
@Grandement You need to put quotes around non-trivial names
Like here:
The first line is layer/datatype, the second one your (invalid) case. The third line shows how to do it correctly and the forth line is a specification including both ways (layer/datatype has priority here).
You will find more details here: https://www.klayout.de/doc-qt5/about/layer_specs.html

Have not thought about it to put it in quotes.
