Polygon vs. polygon clearance
- poly_clr_poly by
Tibor 'Igor2' Palinkas
on
2016-09-24
Some boards need a lot of copper: so much that it looks like if the whole bottom layer was just copper with a few gaps drawn to form islands. A new way of drawing this with pcb-rnd is enabling polygon-vs-polygon clearance. This way thick polygon islands can be formed within a polygon pour without shorting the islands to the pour.
