Enhancements

ATE-4126Improved performance when creating a match for a large number of devices (including m-factors). This includes creating matches within groups that contain a large number of devices.
ATE-4035

New Animate.project fields may be used to specify the library/cells you wish to apply parameter overrides to. Each parameter override can now specify a library and/or a cell string, which will carry out regex matching to only apply the override to matching instances.

ATE-3510
Animate now sets the default rotation for instances based on the Virtuoso component types.


Resolved Issues

ATE-4124

Dummy resizing is now possible if the number of finger parameters is not set on the Pcell. In this case, it will only allow the dummy to be modified in width, as there is no guarantee that the dummy will be a single finger.

ATE-4121

Fixed an issue with large m-factor devices contact sharing at end of row.

ATE-4119Fixed the detection of vanguard rm2 devices being classified as metal options, if a device has two terminals that contain a positive and negative terminal from the lists:

"PLUS", "POS", "P", "n", "plus", "pos", "IN", "in",

"MINUS", "NEG", "N", "n", "minus", "neg", "OUT", "out"

These are not classified as metal options.

ATE-4101pul_gr() should now be able to support conversion to an MPP with a technology specified master path, by reading a saved string variable on the figgroup called MasterPath.
ATE-4094Modified communication between Animate and Virtuoso to correctly select vectored instances when querying.
ATE-4082

Animate no longer incorrectly identifies a built-in poly escape on both the north and south sides of the mosfet when there is only one on the north side. Animate now correctly flips the power down and allows the gate net of this current mirror to be routed.

ATE-4071

Randomness in the hard pattern report file has been removed.
