how to create user padstack layers

Ejlersen

Hi

I've looked for a way to create a layer like "PIN/mymask_top" but not been able to do so

axlLayerCreateNonConductor does not allow me to create subclasses on PIN.

Anyone with an idea how this can be accomplished?

Best regards

  • Hi Ole,

    The only way I know of is to add the pask layer to a padstack!

    This can be done with a script. Then just update the board with the updated padstack and you woul have the new subclass in your design.

    Script example.

    setwindow pcb
    trapsize 89
    setwindow form.padedit
    FORM padedit grid rpopup soldermask_top Insert
    FORM padedit grid row unnamed_mask1
    FORM padedit grid change unnamed_mask1,1 May_MASK1
    FORM padedit grid row may_mask1
    FORM padedit geometry Rectangle
    FORM padedit width 1
    FORM padedit height 0.650
    pse_save
