Looking at the stack of patches in git, it would appear that the "before_pours" branch also adds the "keepout" or anti-polygon feature. I overloaded one of the flags, and if that is set on a polygon, it cuts away any touching polygons to leave a cleared area. IIRC, "J" or the actions to change the (non-existent) "join" flag will toggle the behaviour. The underlying flag is actually the negation of "CLEARLINEFLAG". That flag on a line cuts polygons (IIRC), and now, if it is applied to a polygon, _that polygon_ clears other polygons. Yes, the flag naming is really confusing.. I perhaps could/should have made up a new flag just for that purpose. There is no guarantee this feature will make it back to main-line, and even less so that its implementation / invocation details will remain the same. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
