offgrid ports #196

Closed joamatab closed 9 months ago

joamatab commented 10 months ago

When defining a width that creates off-grid points the show metadata ports is not consistent

c = straight(cross_section="xs_sc", width=15e-3, length=15e-3)

Yeah, that's because the metdataports is a lazy implementation on my side ;). Also, I believe ports get forced on grid where possible

Should now be possible with virtual cells. It was possible even before if snapping was disabled. But we cannot support ports with off-grid widths, as that makes it complicated and very error-prone.
