&CELL: OPTIONS


CELL-PRINT

  Switching on this option, will cause a detailed description of the
  cell to be printed at the time the cell section is left. The table
  contains amongst others the wire numbers which may be useful later
  on with SELECT.

  The same listing can be obtained in the optimisation section using
  the PRINT-CELL command.

  This option is initially off but its setting is remembered from
  one cell section to the next.

LAYOUT

  Switching on this option, will cause a layout of the cell to be
  plotted when the cell section is left. The wire codes are included.
  Mainly used to check typing mistakes visually.

  This option is initially off but its setting is remembered from
  one cell section to the next.

ISOMETRIC

  If the cell has a substantially bigger length in one direction than
  in the other, the layout plot will be distorted. If you specify the
  ISOMETRIC option, the x and y range of the layout plot are the same
  and the chamber will have a normal appearance.

  This option has only effect on the layout plot, not on plots made
  in for instance the field and drift sections - where the aspect
  ratio is given by the AREA statements.

  This option is initially off, but its setting is remembered from
  one cell section to the next.

WIRE-MARKERS

  If active, wires will be plotted as markers and not as circles
  with the size of the wire. The type of marker used for a wire
  depends on the code you have assigned to the wire in the listing
  following ROWS, and its appearance can be modified with the
  !REPRESENT graphics command, see there.

  This option also affects plots made in other sections.

  This option is initially off, but its setting is remembered from
  one cell section to the next.

CHARGE-CHECK

  Checks the quality of the capacitance matrix inversion.

  Only meaningful if the capacitance matrix has indeed been
  inverted - in the vectorised executables, this is as a rule
  not done: the numerical quality of the charge calculation
  is higher if the capacitance equations are solved by other
  means than matrix inversion.

  This option is initially off but its setting is remembered from
  one cell section to the next.
