In a method of routing a wire to a shape in an integrated circuit for minimizing undesirable jog creation during a masking process, a plurality of possible placements of the wire relative to a selected edge of the shape resulting in the wire being connected to the shape are determined. A cost is assigned to each placement, the cost indicating an amount of jog that would be created in the masking process corresponding to the placement, wherein a greater cost indicates that a greater jog would be created in the masking process than would be created by a placement assigned a lesser cost. A placement having a lowest cost of the plurality of possible placements is selected.
