gEDA-user: Polygon clearance around a hole

2007-02-22 Thread Justyn Butler

It doesn't seem to be possible to have polygon clearance around an unplated
via (a via with the hole flag). As soon as the hole flag is enabled, any
clearance between the edge of the hole and the polygon it is sitting in
disappears. As a result, it's not possible to add mounting holes in a
polygon without having any screws then connect to the polygon.

Why is this? Is it just a current technical limitation or is it a specific
feature?

cheers,
Justyn

PCB version: 20060822

So this was a bug that's been fixed in the CVS version?

No, but the polygon code was completely rewritten since then.  The new
version seems to do the right thing.

I have a related question: I can't seem to add polygon clearance to text
either. Is this intentional? I want to add some (copper) text to an area
covered by a polygon.

cheers,
