Fab Folder

Hello all –
Can anyone give me details about what appears to be a new feature in 16.5 PCB Editor?  When “Create Artwork” is performed a new folder named “fab” is created at the same level as the “physical” folder and the newly created artworks are automatically placed in the fab folder.  Sound familiar to anyone? 

Thanks.

    That’s not happening for me, please check to see if your env file has an entry ‘set  ads_sdart    = fab’

    Hi djhutchi,
    You are correct.  I do see that command in the env file.   Where can I read more about how this works?

    Ads_sdart is somewhat documented in the 3 following manuals:
    Algroman
    Algroncdrill
    Algrostart
