export board outline?

e14 Contributor

I am making several boards with common connector layout and mounting holes.

Have one board laid out so far and want to take this to use as a template

for others. What would be the best way to do this?

    You may create a new part in your library with the connector and the

    mounting holes.

    Tried making a library footprint by pasting in a copy of the board. Would

    not accept the components on the board like the connectors I wanted to use.

    I suppose I could just make a dimension markup in the measures layer to give

    outline and center marks of connectors and holes.
