I'm a little unclear about the mask dotted line of the pad command. In the How to Create Footprints document it says this value is the width of the solder mask relief. Is this value the distance from the pad location line to the center of the clearance measurement? If I double the mask how does it affect the diagram in the document? I'm also wondering why the distance from the pad to other conductors on any plane (the clearance) is the clearance value divided by two and not just the clearance value. Finally, if I'm laying out these boards to be made at home what are good values for clearance and mask? Thanks
