Board Block (Polygon)

The Board Block command allows you to create an area to divide the board. This is done by specifying the vertices of a polygon on the canvas. The command is launched by clicking Board Block > Board Block > Board Block (Polygon) Board Block (Polygon) on the eCADSTAR PCB Editor ribbon. The Board Block (Polygon) dialog is displayed. This dialog allows you to specify the angle lock for the sides of the figure. Once you have created a polygon board block, the Save As dialog is displayed.
