Remove one of the paths from a multi-part path

Teodor Luchian

Hi, Andrew. 

I'm using IC617 and I'm trying to create a template to draw 2 parallel 1um paths on comment layer, with a space of 0.8um and a all around halo of extra 0.8um. I managed to create the template and I can draw exactly what I need. My problem right now it's that I need to remove the halo (I only need it to keep the clearance while I draw the paths) and then somehow detach the 2 paths. I attached some images with the multipart settings and what it draws (for you to distinguish the halo, I moved it to another layer, just to have a different color in the attached picture). Can you please help me to advance with this? In the end, I only need those 2 separate paths.

first path:

second path:

halo:

result:



Thanks.

    I split this from the original (8 year old) thread because it didn't really need to be part of that old thread (see the forum guidelines - the pinned post at the top of each forum - this makes it easier for somebody searching later to find something relevant).

    You could do this by selecting the resulting object and then using this SKILL code to remove the halo and convert the paths to no longer be a multi-part path (you could put this on a bindkey if it's something you're doing regularly) - just call CCFremoveHalo().

    procedure(CCFremoveHalo(@optional (objects geGetSelSet()))
  let((rodId haloShapes)
    foreach(object objects
      rodId=rodGetObj(object)
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      ; Identify the sub parts with 4.4 width (not using
      ; == on floating point numbers for safety)
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      when(rodId
        haloShapes=
          setof(subShape rodId~>subShapes abs(subShape~>width-4.4)<0.0001)
      )
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      ; Remove the rod-ness and delete the halo shapes
      ;------------------------------------------------------------------
      rodUnNameShape(rodId)
      foreach(halo haloShapes
        dbDeleteObject(halo)
      )
    )
    t
  )
)
