MASK:MARgin:
PERCent
This command sets or queries the mask-margin percentage. (This is equivalent to
setting a value in the Margin control in the Mask Margins section of the Mask
Setup dialo
g box.) If the margin percentage would cause the m asks to either go off
screen or cross one another, the m argin is not allowed, and the last valid margin is
restored. If you set a positive mask margin percentage, the polygon expands and
the mask test will be more difficult to pass due to the expanded test area. If you
set a negative mask margin percentage, the polygon shrinks and the mask test will
be easier to pass due to the smaller area.
