A hint for quickly and accurately making the outline out of arcs: draw an arc of the right size and position, gerber photoplot it using RS274-X, software arcs, and absolute coordinates, then import it back to the appropriate layer. (If you import a single gerber, it goes to the current layer, as I recall, and in the right position if you have plotted absolute. If there is only one layer enabled, definitely it will go to that layer!) It will be a polygon with a lot of small faces, drawn with individual lines. That's what a "software arc" is. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
