Board outline changes

DAAS
DAAS over 11 years ago

I've tried everything and cant figure out a good way to do this. Lets say I have a rectangular pcb outline (or even a silkscreen) that is drawn as one line and I now need to add in an arc for a stand off. I don't want to redraw the whole pcb outline. What's the best way to handle that? I tried modifying it with the vertex command but that's not working for me.

TIA

    I'm way behind....I'm on S027 and Orcad says I need to be on S038. But where the heck does Orcad have them? Been searhing their site but I'm missing where they are.

    I'm using Allegro 16.6 and I don't see the "Edit -> Drafting" menu either.

    Sorry, I forgot you are using OrCAD and may not have those functions.  I am using Allegro, and yes, it is the Edit next to File.

    That sounds like exactly what I could use....but under my Edit I don't have "Drafting". This is the Edit next to File?
