Yup, but it is not accessable standalone; you have to bring
in various other libgeda datastructures.

Probably not so simple. Especia

The two inter-layers are one double sided board. The solder and component
sides are single layer copper.

It would solve the precision problem, but it would make the internals

At the moment, we can't make *any* pads at an angle.
Even though it's a limitation in gerber spec, it's going to come up
more and more with optical interface boards for lighting, directing LED light
into light pipes.
Can we make SMT footprints with round ended pads on an angle?

The problem isn't rotating the footprint, it's that nothing in pcb
expects pads to be other than orthogonal. For example, the gerber
exporter can't plot angled lines with square corners, it would have to
draw them as filled polygons.
Hello everyone:
I've been checking my board layout with the Design Rule Checker command
in PCB. I was encountering some mysterious behavior and wondering if
anybody could explain this a little.
1. The default minimum spacing is 10 mils, yet DRC flags everything that
is exactly 10 mils. This is a

It's not implemented, and we'd like to have it but have no immediate
plans to add it.

Hello,
is it somehow possible to rotate footprints in steps of 30 and 45
degrees? I'm designing a hexagon board and want to place SMD-LEDs at
each side, so I need to have steps of 30,60, 90... when rotating.
Is this feature planed for future, if not currently implemented?
Thanks for this great t
