Specifying Line Width in the Layout Editor

HFSS no longer displays the Linewidth property for all primitive types in the Properties window. For trace primitives, the line width can still be adjusted directly through Properties, but for other primitive types, such as polygons, use the Expand tool to modify the width instead.

Legacy adsn Files

The following apply to opening legacy adsn files or importing files of other formats that contain polygons, circles, and rectangles with linewith specifications:

• Polygons with linewidth are converted to non-linewidth polygons of the same shape.
• Rectangles with linewidth are converted to non-linewidth polygons of the same shape.
• Circles with linewidth are converted to non-linewdith circles. Circle diameters are equal to the diameters of the legacy circles plus the linewidth.

Legacy Script Commands

The following apply to executing legacy script commands that operate on polygons, circles, and rectangles with linewidths:

• All linewidth properties of rectangles is ignored and warnings are posted in the Message Manager window.
• All polygons and circles are converted to corresponding non-linewidth polygons and circles, but the same shapes are generated.
