polygon command + arcs

[ledvina]

Hello,

POLYGON command is documented as accepting arc segments, referring to LINE documentation.

LINE is generating arc correctly, polygon is using straight segments:

polygon .1 (10 10) -180 (10 20) (20 20) -180 (20 10) (10 10); 

line .1 (10 10) -180 (10 20) (20 20) -180 (20 10) (10 10); 

Possible workaround is to generate line and then convert it to polygon.

Hello @ledvina ,

I just tried this exact sequence in Fusion and I get identical curved outlines. I entered these commands one after the other in the CLI. See image

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

Hello Jorge,

I'm sorry for late reply. I checked again and signal polygons in Board do work. But non-signal layers in Board and all layers in Library ignore arcs - is seems that Polygon Pour is accepting arc segment, but Polygon Shape does not.

Hello @ledvina ,

This highlights that poly shape doesn't even have a dedicated CLI command. Did you try this in the library? In the library you only have polyshape so I guess that's where you are running into this. I'll make a bug report for this.

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

Best Regards,
