Viewing the Project in 3D

1. 1. On the top navigation bar, navigate to the View tab and select Interactive 3D Layout.

2. 2. Use the controls to explore the layout:

• Rotate: Click and drag with the left mouse button.

• Zoom: Use the mouse scroll wheel.

• Pan: Press Ctrl + left mouse button or right mouse button to reposition the layout.

3. Filter Layout Elements

The layout includes several visualization options to help focus on specific elements:

• Toggle Filler Cells: Hide non-functional elements like filler cells.

• Toggle TopCellGeometry: Remove power and ground buses from the view.

• Toggle Instance Labels: Show or hide labels for individual components.

• Toggle Net Connections: Highlight the connections between components.

These options allow for a cleaner and more focused view of the circuit, depending on what you wish to analyze.

4. Isolating Specific Cells

To focus on a particular component, use this feature to analyze specific parts of the circuit in detail:

• Hover the mouse over the desired cell, and then:

• The first option is to click on it to isolate the component, filtering out unrelated elements, in the right bar, using the filter layout elements.

• The second option is to click on the buttons 1, 2 and 3 on your keyboard, with the mouse over the desired cell. Click 3 again to visualize the whole chip again.
