v0.5.14

• option to disable radius check in the functional verification (disabled in the EBeam PDK since we now have S-Bends, and the checker didn't recognized S-Bends).
• simplify loading PDK libraries, with a new function SiEPIC.scripts.load_klayout_library
• new function: list technologies loaded, SiEPIC.scripts.technology_libraries

v0.5.12

What's Changed

• Jupyter notebook support
• Minor bug fixes
• Improvements to Bezier curves
• fix menu Layout > Show selected components
• Python linter, as a GitHub action
• ruff --fix, and ruff format: cleaning up the code

v0.5.11

• added several unit tests that check all the cells in the GSiP library, which check the SiEPIC-Tools code
• added verification of malformed PinRec paths in components
• fixes to SiEPIC.scripts.connect_pins_with_waveguide

v0.5.10

Fixes / improvements:

• minor bug fix: Waveguides with Bezier curves sometimes had a 1 nm sliver #214
• fix for functional verification: shapes outside DevRec. The shape transformation was incorrect
• cell.find_pin improvement, enabling hierarchical pins (overallping, in separate cells)
• Verification.xml wasn't being read for PDK installed via PyPi.
• ptp was removed from the ndarray class in NumPy 2.0. Use np.ptp(arr, ...) instead
• SiEPIC.utils.make_pin function: option for layer name as a string.

New functions:

• SiEPIC.utils.load_layout
• SiEPIC.utils.create_cell2
• SiEPIC.utils.layout.strip2rib pcell function
• SiEPIC.utils.waveguide_length
  with Docstrings

v0.5.7

What's Changed

• Component min spacing by @lukasc-ubc in #210
  • minimum-gc-spacing implemented, from DFT.xml, using minimum-gc-spacing = 60

v0.5.6

• scripts.replace_cell improvement
• fixes to contra directional coupler simulations, passing number of periods
