A method, system and computer program product for controlling a manufacturing process of an electronic circuit, the method includes: calculating at least one layer misalignment between layers of an electrical circuit that are expected to be mutually aligned; wherein the layers are manufactured by at least a direct imaging device that exposes a photo-resistive material to radiation to provide a pattern; selecting, in response to the at least one layer misalignment and in response to at least one allowable misalignment threshold, a selected response out of: manufacturing at least one additional layer of the electrical circuit; and stopping the manufacturing process of the electrical circuit; and participating in executing the selected response.
