I tried a Molded Body Capacitor, AVX TAJ series, EIAJ 3216, EIA 1206 size (case A) as here:
http://www.avx.com/docs/Catalogs/taj.pdf
 
When the LEAST environment is selected the silkscreen shown won't show the component polarity very clearly.
 
MOST environment is okay,  Nominal, I'm not sure: may be clear enough, but the LEAST won't show much difference when printed on a PCB.

We added these new Polarity Marking to allow the user to place them where you want and control the Size and Rotation.
 

We also added Keep-outs for both the Calculator and FP Designer.

These new items are saved in the FPX file.
