I am assuming myself by studying some magic features that I havent looked at before in the latest magic-7.2.36 file. I suspect my issues are my understanding and not a magic issue. Heres the situation. I have a modest inverter magic file created with the default technology. I can do a 'cif write invlay.cif' followed by a 'cif read invlay.cif' and I see two off grid errors for a file that was created with the same technology. The off grid errors are reffering to the GND and Vdd lines in my file at the top and bottom of the inverter and they are: 94 GND 0 -90 CMF; 94 Gdd 0 90 CMF; Magic is saying that they are off the lambda grid by 1/2 and are snapped to grid. I would expect them to be the same as they were both created by magic with the same technology file. If I subsequently say, 'gds write invlay.gds; followed by 'gds read invlay.gds', magic says : "Reading invlay", then "Reading XXXXX1" and the screen is now blank. I really dont know what the XXXXX1 is referring to and I am puzzled why the screen is blank. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable then I can comment why this is so and how I can understand how to make it not so. Charles
