"Negative space" text

Former Member
Former Member over 16 years ago

I downloaded a Eagle board for a Single Sided Serial Arduino. When I

clicked the ratsnest button to calculate the polygon fills, there

appeared "negative space" text. the best way to describe it is that it

looked like the text vectors (and the space it would occupy) was

subtracted from the pour. How can I duplicate this for my projects?

 

Not trying to break any rules, but here is a link to a screen capture of

the result.

    Don't forget to watch for potential ground loops depending on where your

    text is located and what kind of currents and frequencies you have running

    around your board...  If you have the text (positive or negative) near an

    edge, it doesn't hurt to have it close enough to keep from pouring around

    all four sides of the text...

     

    cheers,
