I read in some posts that editing edge cuts in a footprint is not allowed. I didn’t bother to understand why, but that a workaround was to draw the shape on another layer, then move it to the edge cuts layer.
But how to do that? When I right click on the shape I drew on the Cmts.User layer, properties, the Edge.Cuts layer is not an option in the pull down menu for layer.
I have edge cuts in footprints to show where a hole should be cut in the pcb that the footprint fwill be mounted on. The holes are for the tall components on the module to be soldered. This allows a much thinner pcb assembly.
I could draw the edge cuts on the pcb itself, but then when I move the component, I have to move the edge cuts too.
Maybe there is a better way?
