Re: DXP, drag footprint outline?

Hello, Brad!
Thanks for your help.
There are some distractions working but I'll sit down with your text and
work through it. By the way, I got a five watt size resistor package to
rubberband the other day. I was absolutely agog, but way too tired to really
enjoy it. Maybe I'll get lucky with scaled down packages.

As you have hinted, I'm sure the secret is in having the right grid setting,
knowing the right spot to click (and ones to avoid), and managing vertices.
A large part of my problem was that I would inadvertently create vertices,
and hadn't learned how to get rid of them. This weakness would get magnified
on small parts. There weere a bunch of line segments needing to be
(re)joined before they would behave. "Keyboard shortcuts", "vertices", and
managing grid settings are on my list of -training- objectives.

I'll be drawing some heatsink outlines in a day or so and try out your
ideas. Thanks again!
