It would be very nice to have a BAG-related communication platform that would work as a channel to bring up questions, problems, and different views to BAG an BAG development on top of the github issues.

Hi Marko Kosunen, I am a graduate student from Taiwan and I use BAG to do research. I have encountered a problem while extracting RC via BAG . Therefore, I tried to use the method provided from the commits "Adding support for Calibre LVS + QRC extraction" on 26 Aug 2019 and revised all the codes. However, it still doesn't work. Then, I have gone to see the "bag_config.yaml" to check what is going on, and I find that it needs a "qrc_options.yaml" as a RCX runset file. Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere under the files downloaded from here and Cadence cds_ff_mpt. Therefore, I would like to ask if this is a key file to run it successfully. If you have any instructions, please let me know. Thanks a lot. Appreciate

Hi Daniel (@danielrayray43041 ), I have a bit different approach in using BAG. I do not use BAG features for extraction or simulation, nor LVS or DRC but I control those separately from a different environment in which I use BAG only to generate parametrized layouts. Unfortunately I therefore can not help you with this.

Hi @mkosunen Thanks for your reply. You provide me useful information. Could you mind telling me the method you use to generate a parameterized layout via BAG. Thanks a lot!!

That is currently a bit tedious task. You shou browse through the material in https://github.com/ucb-art/BAG_XBase_demo and perhaps https://github.com/ucb-art/bag_advanced_examples

That is to my knowledge all that it currently available. I have build a different and more modular approach doing that, but that is not yet published. I try to find some time doing that.
