### Description It would be nice to have a way to know whether or not we're running with an exclusive feature such as Charts, which is not supported in CentOS...

[#1930](https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD-flow-scripts/pull/1930) showed that we actually don't allow different x & y coordinates for macro placement halos in mpl2, so [#1933](https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenROAD-flow-scripts/issues/1933) was opened.

### Description Currently, mpl2 cannot find a solution for sky130hd-microwatt without relying on using extreme values for target util. ### Suggested Solution 1. Not relying on enhancedHierarchicalMacroPlacement function measures. 2....
### Description The zoom out limits causes zooming in the cursor direction to not work properly when zooming out close to the limits. ### Suggested Solution Zoom out should work...
### Description It is impossible to have horizontal, but not vertical abutment like the manual placement had for asap7/mock-array with mpl2 flow. ### Suggested Solution Add separate x & y...
