Place a similar polygon on the appropriate solder m
Masks are negative layers.
Copy the polygon to the desired mask layer.
Presto, a void is created in shape of the polygon.

In P99SE PCB editor, is there a way to remove the solder mask from a
specific polygon? I wish do this so I can glue a piece of copper to the pcb
as a heat sink and do not want the mask there as a thermal insulator.

Pick up the vertex and hit the Delete key. Unfortunately, Protel deletes
the *next* vertex, a minor but irritating characteristic.

Dont worry - found it !
When Move polyGon and clicked on vertex hit delete - logical really !!

Hi Tommy,
This topic has been mentioned before a while back (albeit briefly).
I would also like a more "useful" 3D board creator/viewer. I don't know if this

main part of the message (hope it's ok to send it):-

There is a utility to rebuild all polygons in the Yahoo group for download.
It was written by Jason Morgan from Citel Technologies. I have been using
it for about 6 months and it works great!
Thank you Jason.

It might help, but it will still be necessary to edit each polygon. Global

Not really. This 3D stuff comes at the price that I'd
have to edit the part library for 3D. Since I consider
the gain of a 3D view as being rather limited, I'm not
looking forward to it.

When I got 99SE i was promised that there will come an uppgrade to fix the
problems to edit 3D components, in 3D view.
I havent heard anything abaut in this group, are the other ho is waiting for
