Your symbol has 5 or 8 pins? The one big pad has what pin number? I'd do a footprint/symbol with 8 pins, connect them on the schematic, and draw poly across the connected pins on the layout. I don't know if the poly clearance can be reduced to zero, of if you need to draw thermals to the poly, or a fat line, depending what you need. > How can I do this? Suggestions?
