Edit [padstack manager]

Use: Edit an existing padstack.

Command: Tools > Edit Configured Libraries > Padstacks > Edit Padstack

Syntax: Edit <PadstackName>,

Array("NAME:<NewPadstackName>",

"ModTime:=", <ModifiedOnInfo>,

"Library:=", "", // name of the library

"LibLocation:=", "Project", // location of the named library

Array("NAME:psd",

"nam:= ", <PadstackName>,

"lib:=", "", // name of the library

"mat:=", "", // hole plating material

"plt:=", "0", // percent of hole's radius filled by plating

Array("NAME:pds",

<LayerGeometryArray....),

"hle:=", <PadInfo>

"hRg:=", <HoleRange>,

"sbsh:=", <SolderballShape>,

"sbpl:=", <SolderballPlacement>,

"sbr:=", <string>, // solderball diameter, real with units

"sb2:=", <string>, // solderball mid diameter, real with units

"sbn:=", <string>), // name of solderball material

"ppl:=", <PadPortLayerArray>)

Return Value: <string> // composite name of the padstack

// If the name requested conflicts with the name of an existing

// padstack, the requested name is altered to be unique.

// The name returned reflects any change made to be unique.
