Minor Bug - No closed dimension error if detect board shape unselected.

Anonymous — Sun, 09 Dec 2018 17:15:15 GMT

I think this one is pretty minor, but I have a PCB with a completely closed contour in the dimension layer (verified by moving each vertex to confirm connection) and if the "detect board shape" option is unselected it gives an error when exporting to Fusion 360. Clicking detect board shape fixes the issue.

Hi @Anonymous,

I hope you're doing well. This is not a bug, the detect board shape function is critical to the interaction with Fusion360. Hence, if it is disabled then the export to Fusion360 will fail. As simple as it is to click the checkbox, the board shape function does some pretty sophisticated analysis on the board to detect the closed contour and handle the corner cases that can crop up.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,
