In the days of mechanical photoplotting, having an aperture be exposed to small causes the problems you're thinking of. Or, if you have a situation like that and you globally change the size of all lines, for example.
Me, I think the bloat/shrink stuff is way obsolete. We need to strip out that DRC and put in a new one that uses current terminology. Of course, the ps exporter *has* a bloat option. Me, I'd set the board's shrink to match my ps bloat, so if I "bloat" the ps lines smaller (as I do, to match my process), they remain connected. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
