I've used 2 pads very close together + hand edit for a graphic line between the 2. If the pads are close enough, DRC will not allow any track between them so no need to worry about someone accidentally routing more copper over that. Of course there is still an ugly and possibly not really useful feature on your PCB, but it works. - Cirilo _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
