Abstract
According to various embodiments of the invention electronic circuit design information can be presented to a designer by determining an electronic circuit comprising at least two gates and by determining a distance of one gate relative to another gate in a stage. A visual indicator for the stage can be calculated based on the distances between at least two gates in the stage. The visual indicator can then be displayed. The visual indicator can be a color and the relative distance can be indicated by brightness, hue or saturation, etc. Alternatively, the visual indicator can be a pattern and the relative distance between at least two gates can be indicated by darkness of the pattern.
