Hello All, i missed some default settings. - "Pad Size Roundoff" for the TH Terminals - "Solder Mask Annular Expansion" - "Paste Mask (% of Pad Size)" Also when the padstack is created it generates wrong pad names. I checked the demo values for Chip Resistor and set "Solder mask .." to 0.1 and the Paste to 90% the program generates a name like in the picture in 2 diffrent versions.  Best Regards Olaf Mueller

You have "File > Options > Pad Stack Rules > SMD Solder and Paste Masks" to globally set your Solder Mask and Paste Mask for all footprints. The Round-off is new in V2021 Console Options - Decimal Place Accuracy goes from 2 - 6 places for minimum and maximum. The defaults are currently 2 minimum and 3 maximum but you can set it to whatever you what for low or high resolution. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
