is there a trick for getting a thin macro that happens to not intersect with the relevant horizontal pdn connections to still be connected with the pdn somehow?

Its automated macro placement or manually placed?

there's a grid structure though, so there isn't much flexibility

for now, I think making the macros tall enough to always intersect is a reasonable enough solution...

From Peter:
I would suggest adding a single set of straps:
So use the -offset to align the straps over the macro and set -number_of_straps to 1.
You could likely have to change the flow scripts to allow this

I make macros tall and thin for this exact resason
