Re: gEDA-user: next PCB release - 1.99za vs 4.0



   Okay, "courtyard".  Thanks for the nomenclature help :-)
   I'm just thinking of a couple of parts for a design that I'm working on
   where I need to make sure that I don't put any more parts in between
   areas of the footprint, but traces are ok because they're part of the
   board and won't interfere with the airspace.
   Is it possible that this (or the "assembly layer" concept mentioned by
   timecop) is already supported by PCB somehow, but I just don't know
   about it?  I can't say I'd be surprised - I seem to learn something new
   every week or so...
   Thanks!

     I think the term you're looking for is a "courtyard" - the part of
     the
     PCB's "airspace" that's owned by the component.
