The Ansys Electronics Desktop (AEDT)TM electronics systems design platform assumes exported GDSII files require a resolution of 1nm. If users export GDSII files with a resolution less than 1nm, the user can change the value of the parameter by creating the environment variable ANSYS_GDSII_EXPORTER_RESOLUTION and entering an appropriate value (e.g., ANSYS_GDSII_EXPORTER_RESOLUTION=0.5nm).
