|---|---|
| Anchor constraint |
An Anchor constraint is a special constraint used to position cells and paths (traces). |
| Angle constraint - type 1 |
This constraint places a point variable at a given angle relatively to two given points. |
| Angle constraint - type 2 |
This constraint places a point variable at a given angle relatively to two given points. |
| Angle constraint - type 3 |
Measures in radians the angle between three given points. |
| Binary operators |
Binary operators are constraints that have a numeric variable as target and two numeric expressions as predecessors. The binary operators are : + (addition), - (subtraction), * (multiplication), / (division), % (modulo), ^ (exponentiation). |
| Center constraint |
A center constraint places its target at the midpoint between its two predecessors. |
| Colinear constraint |
A colinear constraint places its target on the line passing through its two predecessors. |
| Distance constraint - type 1 |
This constraint places a point variable at a given distance from a given point variable. |
| Distance constraint - type 2 |
Measures the distance between two given point variables. |
| Distance constraint - type 3 |
Place a point variable at a given distance from a line through two given point vaiables. |
| Equidistant constraint |
Places a point variable at equal distances from two given point variables. |
| Horizontal center constraint |
Places a point variable at equal horizontal distances from two given point variables. |
| Horizontal constraint |
Places a point variable horizontally aligned with a given point variable. |
| Horizontal distance constraint - type 1 |
Place a point variable at a given horizontal distance from a given point variable. |
| Parallel constraint |
Places a point variable on a line through a given point variable parallel to the line through two given point variables. |
| Projection constraint |
Places a point variable at the projection of a given point variable on the line through two given point variables. |
| Slope constraint |
Places a point variable at a given slope relatively to a given point variable. |
| Unary functions |
The following unary functions have been defined: |
| Vertical center constraint |
Places a point variable at equal vertical distances from two given point variables. |
| Vertical constraint |
Places a point variable vertically aligned with a given point variable. |
| Vertical distance constraint |
Place a point variable at a given vertical distance from a given point variable. |
| Weight constraint |
Places a point variable at a specific location on a line through two given point variables. |
