Footprint Auto Wipeout

Footprint Auto Wipeout

It would be incredible if when you built a footprint you had an option to check for ACADE to auto generate a wipeout that fits the exact outline of the footprint graphic that was created. It would also put the wipeout in the back so it hides only objects behind your footprint.

 

This would prevent the need to do your own wipeout so you dont forget! Also, it is annoying that you can see the wipeout lines unless you turn off the frames setting for that sheet.

I already have this in my toolbox. Both for footprints and balloons:

Now.. If I only got to finish this toolbox....

Is the toolbox available?

Unfortunately no. I've decided that its not my job to improve AutoCAD Electrical, but Autodesk's.

As I've moved on to a different/better ECAD package, there's no need for me to keep creating special solutions that help me in my daily work-life either.
