Deleting existing GerberCUT targets
There are several ways to delete existing GerberCUT targets.
♦ Select and delete targets as you would any object in your job.
♦ Perform another Corner Target or Automatic Target procedure. Any existing targets
will be deleted and replaced with the new targets.
♦ Select the Target layer and delete it. If new targets are generated, a new Target layer
will be created.
Freehand drawing
Drawing is a process of adding lines and curves between points. Use the Line tool in the
Toolbox and the Line toolbar to set the points and change from lines to curves and back again.
Tip: After you have created a freehand drawing you can use the Detail Edit tools to modify it.
The following example shows the effect of the various Line tools.
♦ Clicking on the Line tool, then the work surface, sets the first point.
♦ Moving the mouse and clicking sets point 2.
♦ Clicking on Start Curve, moving the mouse, and clicking sets point 3.
♦ Clicking on End Curve returns the Line tool to drawing straight lines again.
♦ Notice the difference in the curves between points 2 and 3, and points 4 and 7. The
smooth curve requires the addition of points 5 and 6 to achieve roughly the same
curve as the sharp curve between points 2 and 3.
♦ Also notice the sharp transition between lines and curves at points 2 and 3, and the
gentle or smooth transition at points 4 and 7.
♦ This is an open shape as indicated by the circles at the start and end of the shape.
