Route Keep In

Yoda5939

This post specifically pertains to the subject but applies to all areas of keep outs. I need to add a route keep-in of 2.33mm to my board. What is the latest how-to for this procedure? I have turned on the appropriate layer but can't seem to draw the shape. I know its elementary but a refresher would be great. Thanks.

     Try an Edit - ZCopy, then set the Options menu to Route Keepin with a Contract Value of 2.33mm then left click your Board Outline. For Keepouts you can use the Expand. It works much like an Offset command
