measuring min (clearance)   distance

e14candies

Is there a function or way to display & highlight the minimum distance

between two objects(or traces.  Say you have a zig zag shaped polygon next

to a circular pad, or even two zig-zag traces in the vicinity of one

another.  Is there a way to display how close they come to one another?

    Hello Hoyt,

     

    There's nothing specifically tailored to that. You could achieve it

    using the dimension tool or other measurement methods such as setting a

    fine enough grid, place a relative origin and then read the coords off

    of the top.

     

    Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

     

    Best Regards,

    Jorge Garcia
