Abstract: An active matrix liquid crystal display panel has a pair of substrate structure and liquid crystal confined in a space between the substrate structures; non-transparent signal terminals and non-transparent connectors are formed in the frame area of one of the substrate structure where the thin film transistors and pixel electrodes are formed together with scanning and data signal lines; when a seal layer is formed along a predetermined route in the frame area, the manufacturer checks a negative vernier formed in the connectors to see whether or not the seal layer extends along the predetermined route before the assemblage so as to enhance the reliability of products without sacrifice of the pixel matrix.
