Missing design rules? #113

Open mguthaus opened 1 year ago

mguthaus commented 1 year ago

This page should be an index of design rules: https://gf180mcu-pdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/physical_verification/design_manual/drm_07.html

The design rules are very difficult to find. They are only accessible through an expandable left menu like so: image There should be an entry point page that has a list of design layers so that you can click to a specific set of design rules much like the other sky130 PDK: https://antmicro-skywater-pdk-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/rules.html

@mguthaus I would really appreciate to get your feedback, how to make it more intuitive for users to find the rules. Any ideas?

mguthaus commented 1 year ago

I updated my initial comment and the topic.

mguthaus commented 1 year ago

Every time a page is reloaded the expandable menu on the left also resets and closes. This makes it very difficult to navigate.

Thanks @mguthaus

Perhaps it would also make sense to move all the DRC rules upwards in the hierarchy so that it isn't hidden so deep?
