Research direction
This is a request to show schematic-style instance names (MN1, MP1, etc.) on MOS devices in the layout view for IHP SG13G2; renaming in the hierarchy browser does not update the layout. Read the linked IHP-Open-PDK issue 833 for the intended naming, then find how instance or cell names are drawn in the layout view and whether they can follow schematic instance names. Done is those names visible on devices in layout, not only in the hierarchy browser.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
I am using Klayout with IHP SG13G2 Open PDK and would like to visually identify MOS devices in layout using schematic-style instance names (e.g., MN1, MN2, MP1, MP2). Currently, renaming cells in the hierarchy browser does not displays updated name on layout of device.
