|
shapeType |
A string with the name of the shape or its handle. The following values are predefined.
FWiz.PADSHAPE_ROUND |
The pad takes a circular or ellipsoidal shape depending on the values specified in the fields width and height.
The value of the field formFactor is irrelevant and can be zero.
|
FWiz.PADSHAPE_SQUARE |
The pad assumes a square or rectangular shape with blunted angles depending on the values specified in the fields width, height and formFactor.
The value of the field formFactor specifies the smoothing percentage of all four corners of the pad.
|
FWiz.PADSHAPE_ROUNDED |
The pad takes a circular, square, rectangular or oblong shape depending on the values specified in the fields width, height and formFactor.
The value of the field formFactor specifies the rounding percentage of all four edges of the pad
|
FWiz.PADSHAPE_SEMIROUNDED |
The pad takes a square, rectangular or semi-oblong shape depending on the values specified in the fields width, height and formFactor.
The value of the field formFactor specifies the rounding percentage of two of the four edges of the pad.
|
FWiz.PADSHAPE_SECTOR |
The pad takes the form of a circle or ellipse sector depending on the values specified in the fields width, height and formFactor.
The value of the field formFactor specifies the width of the sector.
|
FWiz.PADSHAPE_SHAPED |
The basic shape of the pad is a square or a rectangle depending on the values specified in the fields width and height.
The corners can be at 90 degrees, beved, sunken, or rounded depending on the format string specified in the corners field.
The format string can contain up to 4 characters, each of which describes the shape of a corner starting from the one at the bottom right and continuing counterclockwise.
The value of the field formFactor specifies the amplitude of the corner. The characters are as follows:
S: Specifies a 90-degree angle. |
B: Specifies a beveled angle. |
D: Specifies a rounded angle. |
K: Specifies that the angle is sunken at 90 degrees. |
O: Specifies that the angle is sunken and rounded. |
V: Specifies that the angle extends to the bottom side. |
U: Specifies that the angle extends to the right side. |
Example: BSBS to bevel the first and fourth corner.
|
|
height |
Specifies the size of the pad on the y-axis. |
width |
Specifies the size of the pad on the x-axis. |
formFactor |
Specifies the percentage of rounding or beveling of all four corners of the pad.
When shapeType=DlxApp.PADSHAPE_SHAPED, specifies the amplitude of the corner. |
corners |
Used when
shapeType=FWiz.PADSHAPE_SHAPED, it specifies the corners
format string. |
Return Value
If the operation ends correctly, it returns true otherwise it returns false.
Remarks
LAYERTYPE_ALLPCBLAYERS describes the default shape, i.e. the shape the pad takes for all layers for which no specific shape has been defined.
LAYERTYPE_ALLINNERCOPPER describes the shape of the pad for all inner layers.
