Datatype Macros

Datatype is an additional informative integer stored with each shape. It is used for different purposes, e.g. it can describe the function of that shape or the exposure dosis for that shape in mask writing. It can be viewed/edited by the PropertiesMode. Furthermore it is accessable via macros. This two macro will give an example and may also be used for datatype dependent layout processing.
