Sorry for the delay, I was away last days. Moving vertices is very dangerous. You don't know anything about the board mechanical constraints and therefore: - You don't know the effect of this move on the board. - You don't know what is the best segment to move. Only the board designer can do this kind of change. For me, when a closed polygon is needed (currently, in 3D functions and specctra export), the best way is to add a small segment between 2 segments/arcs ends, when creating the polygon. About manufacturing problems, I *never* had any problem with board outlines (and I usually have boards with complicated outlines). -- Jean-Pierre CHARRAS _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
