Hey guys,
I'm working on some prototype PCB that I will manufacture in house. This is my first project with Cadence, and I haven't been fortunate enough to have the training yet.
Using FPM to create footprints is really nice, but it would suit hand drilling better if the pads were hollow instead of solid filled. The Cadence help implies that this cannot be done. It even says that custom pad shapes will be filled in solid.
Can I change the padstack to get them hollow, or use some touch up tool like GerbTool to change the gerbers?
Thanks!
