Is there a good way to do this with PCB? It would be relatively easy if planes could be handled as negatives, i.e. everything you see is NOT there. Then it is just a matter of moving a line. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
