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

Ole

    Hi Ole,

    17.0 promises many advancements in pin/padstack management. You might want to review what is coming.

    We add manufacturing/pastemask_top layers to symbols such as QFNs to get around the split-past problems problems. As such, adding a pin subclass isn't necessary.
