IDF files and libraries

autodeskguest

Hi support,

I'm currently testing the IDF export tool in Eagle 7.3.

I have some question concerning the component dimensions.

I know that I have to add a HEIGHT attribute for each component. But I

can't find which layer is used in the package to determine the width and

length of the component.

 

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Vincent

    Hi Warren,

    reading the ulp header, i got the 2.2 version coming with my eagle 7.3

    version.

    I don't see in the file any option or configuration concerning the keepout.

    Do you have more information?

    Maybe I can contact the author Marc Battistello.

    Hi Vincent,

     

    The latest version is 2.4 which comes with EAGLE 7.5.0. I don't see any

    comments about it being implemented in that version so it looks like

    being able to ignore features on the keep out layers is still on the

    todo list.

     

    hth,
