Grid Registers

The grid registers from the Grid Parameters pop-up are saved in the technology file if they contain a non-default grid.

GridRegN resol snap linestyle [xsize]
The keywords GridReg0 - GridReg7 can be used in the technology file to define the contents of the grid registers. Except for register 0, which is volatile, if a register has been set, the keyword will appear in the output when a new technology file is generated with the Save Tech command in the Attributes Menu. The resol is the grid spacing in microns, snap is the snapping number (-10 - 10 excluding 0), and linestyle is the line style code. If the line style code is 0 (for a dot grid), then a fourth number can appear. This is an integer 0-6 which indicates the number of pixels in the four orthogonal directions to extend the dot into a cross.
