Boundary cells

[nnpruthviraj]

set_boundary_cell_rules -left_boundary_cell saed32_hvt|saed32_hvt_std/DCAP_HVT -right_boundary_cell saed32_hvt|saed32_hvt_std/DCAP_HVT -at_va_boundary
I am setting rules for boundary cells as above
I have created keepout margin around macro and it is following legality (integral multiple of site height and width)
compile_boundary_cells
when i compile, right boundary cells are placing exactly on right boundary of keepout margin, but left boundary cells are placing on the left boundary of macro, not on keepout boundary

you have your macro placed on top of a std cell region, that is probably the reason. you have to make a cut in your floorplan
