Re: gEDA-user: next PCB release - 1.99za vs 4.0
In Protel there is a keep-out layer. A object, square, polygon etc,
on
that layer prevents traces from being run through that area, either
manually or by the auto-router (which sucks so bad I never use it).
Hmmm... Can we have multiple keep-outs for a single copper layer,
e.g. digital keepout, analog keepout, HV keepout? That would be
very useful! (Or maybe more appropriate to say "keep-in".)
Yes, the 'keep-out' should be per layer. In Protel it blocks all
layers which is frequently what you do not want.
Drawing a contain outline in copper, then remembering to delete it
latter, can serve as pseudo keep-out/in.
