Hole data chart - drill template

archive
archive over 19 years ago

When creating a drill template - is there anyway of reducing the size of the hole data chart that the system automatically produces?  For our standard start template which is A3 size this chart is far to big and unproportional... Its usually bigger than the boards themselves!

    The only options you have here is to play with the FixedFigureHeight entry in the drill template (.dlt file - normally found in $CDSROOT\share\pcb\text\nclegend).


    "; A non-zero FixedFigureHeight will force ALL(!) figures displayed
    ; in the "Figure" column to be displayed with the same specified
    ; height, overriding what is defined in individual padstacks. The
    ; setting of 0 included below indicates that they will be displayed
    ; with the sizes as defined in the padstacks."

    I've used this before to reduce the size of the drill chart - apart from that the only other option is manually editing it.
