Hi,
I’m currently working on a grid shape board with cutouts. I stumbled a lot over malformed outlines during the creation of the board outline. I also tried to reproduce the issue but can’t do by intent. Finally I made it and started routing. I checked the outline several times by just using 3D view and suddenly, without any changes to the edge.cut layer, the board outline became malformed again.
I tried “Tools->CleanUp Graphics->Fix discontinuities 0.1mm” without success.
I restored a working version from the backup folder.
Note: I deleted everything but the edge.cut to protect IP of my customer.
