# NAME
filler_placement - filler placement
# SYNOPSIS
filler_placement
[-prefix prefix]
filler_masters
# DESCRIPTION
The `filler_placement` command fills gaps between detail-placed instances
to connect the power and ground rails in the rows. `filler_masters` is a
list of master/macro names to use for filling the gaps. Wildcard matching
is supported, so `FILL*` will match, e.g., `FILLCELL_X1 FILLCELL_X16 FILLCELL_X2
FILLCELL_X32 FILLCELL_X4 FILLCELL_X8`. To specify a different naming prefix
from `FILLER_` use `-prefix <new prefix>`.
# OPTIONS
`-prefix`: Prefix to name the filler cells. The default value is `FILLER_`.
`filler_masters`: Filler master cells.
# ARGUMENTS
This command has no arguments.
