IDF export broken?

Joop14

Dear Cadsoft,

 

I have some questions about your generate-3d-idf-data.ulp.

 

According to your document $EAGLEDIR/doc/ulp/generate-3d-idf-data_en.pdf the height of a package is drawn in layers 57 and 58. The board in layer 50.

 

How do I create these layers?

 

I patched the ulp by changing layers to 150, 157 and 158. This way I'm able to create the layers and draw the contour of the height of the part.

 

Why isn't it possible to create layers 50, 57 and 58?

 

Thanks for answering,

 

Joop

    Hi Joop,

     

    I hope you're doing well. Long story, here's where we are at. The devs don't want the layers changed so I altered the ULP to check for the correct layers 50,57,58(correct being defined by the devs) and if they are not found then the ULP offers to create them. I've taken your latest changes and incorporated them along with my changes to make V2.2 of the ULP. If you can send me the file that exercises the mirror bug, I would appreciate it to make sure the merged ULP is working. Once that's done then I can send it to the devs so that it can be included in the next release of EAGLE.

     

    You can e-mail me support@cadsoftusa.com.

     

    Best Regards,
