Auto-placement for macros #506

Open FriedrichWu opened 4 months ago

FriedrichWu commented 4 months ago

Description

I've noticed that openlane2 currently uses manual macro placement. I'm wondering if there's any option in openlane2 to use auto macro placement?(Since the openroad dose support this)

Proposal

No response

So I implemented it and it technically works but idk I think taking like 5 minutes to decide on your macro floorplan will still ultimately yield a far better result 😅
