@Matt Venn, @Tim Edwards @Dinesh A, I would like to run the caravel flow interactively, is that possible? For instance, I would like to modify the verilog netlist generated by the Yosys and then continue from floorplan with the modified netlist. Could someone help me with the commands that will run the "make user_proj_example" interactively? Thanks.

You may need to talk to the openlane developers. There are ways to modify the flow to insert additional steps.

oh great, thanks!

@Janani Aravind 1. work with standalone OpenLane interactively and generate netlist. 2. take that netlist and pass it in the caravel flow and point your netlist as

VERILOG_FILES

and use

SYNTH_ELOBRATE_ONLY

true to read netlist directly

Sure!
