Hello,
I am just trying Diptrace for the first time and am noticing how poor it is in comparison to Eagle.
I am trying to manually draw a 1206 resistor land pattern as an example.
When I try to draw a silkscreen line between the pads, it doesn’t appear to allow me to pre-select the silkscreen line thickness. So Every silkscreen line that I draw has to be left clicked, then right clicked, then I have to change the thickness of the line there. Also, I cannot see a solder resist mask. Presumably I can add that in in the Layout program? Also, for any component, a “courtyard” must be drawn around it for collision avoidance reasons…but Diptrace does not offer any layer on which this “courtyard” can be drawn. In eagle, you simply draw the “courtyard” on eg the “tdocu” layer.
How can I do this in Diptrace?
