#364 LVS feature request: option for implicitly connecting nets Issue created by stafverhaegen-chipflow In my development of the SRAM compiler I'm now doing LVS on subblocks. In these subblocks I can have more than

vdd

net that are not connected to each other. They each have their pin and are meant to be connected on a higher level. klayout has a function

connect_implicit()

that allows to virtually connect the net. I would like to have an option to add nets to be connected virtually to the LVS deck. I'm using the LVS script, not the klayout GUI. Other option is to have a

connect_implicit("*")

and have an option for switching between top-level and non top-level LVS. Some context can be found in KLayout/klayout#1986 IHP-GmbH/IHP-Open-PDK
