Short Sliver (Sliver) (Signal Layer)

Reports slivers, either between two copper areas (positive layer) or two clearance areas (negative layers), that have width less than pp_sliver, and non-zero.

Purpose	A laminate sliver may cause material to detach during photo-imaging processes in fabrication. The floating piece can cause defects and shorts which reduce yield.
Function	Reports slivers, either between two copper areas (positive layer) or two clearance areas (negative layers), that have width less than pp_sliver, and non-zero. See “Sliver and Short Sliver Categories (Signal Layer Checks)”.
