Component with cutout
« on: July 19, 2013, 03:58:38 pm »
Hi,
i'm having trouble making this micro usb connector http://www.molex.com/pdm_docs/sd/474910001_sd.pdf , i really don't know how to make the cutout, i also have the 3d model of the connector but i don't know if i can generate the cut from the step file.
I don't have big problems making the pads.
Thanks for the help.

Make the cutout on your board outline.

in the pcblib editor :
place a polygon in the shape of the cutout on the top layer.
select the polygon and open the pcblib inspector.
set layer to Multilayer and set 'Cutout' checked

done
