Inconsistent footprint calculations for the SODFL

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello,
I have noticed that depending on the order in which you provide the dimensions for the SODFL package, the layout recommendation differs. 

If you switch the b1 dimension with b and L1 with L, you get different padstacks. Is it a bug in the software or is there some other reason for such results?

I use the latest version of the PCB Footprint Expert.

Please see the attached screenshot for the comparison:
