Fill a polygon

New page

== General ==

You can reach this mode: 
by '''[5]''', 
by '''"Draw Filled Polygons"''' in '''[[Menu Elements]]''' or 
by the tool [[Image:PolyFilled.jpg]] under icon [[Image:pen.jpg]] 

Leave this mode: 
by '''[ESC]''' or [[Mousekeys|'''M12''']] 

== What you can do ==

Fix by [[Mousekeys|'''M1''']] each of the tips of the polygon. The polygon is finished when pressing '''[Return]''' or clicking '''[M1]''' exactly at its starting tip. By '''[o]''' for '''o'''ptions you can define the drawing layer. The polygon is formed out of several triangles. If you want to highlight the polygon as a whole, press button [[Image:SelByElem.png]] in pointer toolbar. If you now click [[Mousekeys|'''M1''']] on one of the polygons triangles, the polygon as a whole is highlighted. The tips of the polygon can be dragged with '''[g]'''. With a polygon in a deletion layer you can create an automatic [[groundplane]], see below. 

'''From V 15:''' A polygon having a signal can be used as a connection. Signal tracks within polygons are not necessary anymore. 

== EXAMPLE ==

Define the corners of the polygon by mouseclick after choosing the tool: [[Image:PolyFilled.jpg]] For closing the figure, please click on the starting point or just press '''[Return]'''. TARGET closes the polygon automatically. 

[[Image:polygon1.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]

[[Image:polygon2.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
Every polygon in TARGET 3001! is made out of a multitude of triangles. For having a view on this, please use the "quickdraw" mode by pressing the hash key [#]. Get back to the "solid" view by pressing it again. 

[[Image:polygon3.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
If you click on the polygon, you will hit a single triangle. Little boxes appear on its tips. 

[[Image:polygon4.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
Touch them with mousekey held and drag them or open a context menu by clicking with the right mousekey. This is the context menu for the upper box: 

[[Image:polygon5e.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
"Delete corner" effects the following: 

[[Image:polygon6.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
"Undo" the last action brings the polygon into the initial state again. "Insert corner" doesn't make sense at blades 1 and 2 , so a new corner is added to blade 3 because this one is the longer one of both possible blades neighbour to this corner. 

[[Image:polygon7.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
If you want to drag a corner, you might create something like this: 

[[Image:polygon8.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
Click on "properties" opens the dialog for normal triangle settings: 

[[Image:polygon9e.jpg|none]]
To create a polygonal groundplane, just draw a polygon into a deletion layer (e.g. layer 0). If you now select the polygon completely, you can assign it a signal (e.g. AGND). All the tracks excepting those of Signal AGND need to get assigned an aura greater than zero: 

[[Image:2xMasse.jpg|thumb|400px|none]]
Thus you can also arrange several [[groundplane]]s in one copper layer: E.g. AGND and DGND.

== Fill a polygon (pour) ==

Polygonal areas can easily be created in TARGET 3001!. See this example:

[[image:polygonfuellen1_e.jpg|alt="Pour a polygon"]] 
Image: In order to open the context menu click '''[[M2]]''' on the vertex and select the option... 

[[image:polygonfuellen2_e.jpg|alt="Pour a polygon"]] 
Image: Result - and again...

 

[[image:polygonfuellen3_e.jpg|alt="Pour a polygon"]] 
Image: Result.
