Prepatch, you could have just ignored the PCB DRC bug in a footprint you
knew to be accurate.

Hello,

Couldn't you basically cut off the tray/base and mount it over your
working space with a clamp? I am not saying it would be a pretty
solution, but an 80 dollar expense would sure beats a 1500 dollar
expense.

I would really recommend learning how to create your own footprints.
Specifically, I would look at some existing newlib footprints and the
footprint manual and create your own footprints. I just finished up my
first board using gEDA and I am very glad I learned how to make my own
footprints. I

To make an entire layer of a board a ground layer, all I would need to
do is:
1. Select correct layer from the bullets on the left hand side.
2. Select RECT
3. Draw the rectangle on the entire board which will automagically

How does one delete the M4 from pcb? I see no reason for me to learn two
ways of creating footprints and so I will default to using the newlib way
only.
