Hi Jan,
Thanks for the code. I'd guess that most if not all the patterns in "Add RF
Element" could be created this way. I have Performance (L) 15.7 version,
and though I find the "Add RF Element" in the documentation, I don't find
that menu anywhere...so I'm guessing I don't have that feature. What
version/level does that feature come in?
Regards,
Austin

Hi,
I have used the Skill code below to create spiral etch patterns:
let((turns width spac point_per_turn center_x center_y pi_val point_ang
point_rad end_ang rad_inc ang_inc l_vertices point_x point_y direct)
;
; Edit following six lines
turns = 6.0
width = 100.0 ; Width of spirals line (dbu's)
spac = 100.0 ; Spacing between turns, edge to edge (dbu's)
point_per_turn = 32 ; Resolution
center_x = 5000.0 ; Center x coordinate of spiral (dbu's)
center_y = 5000.0 ; Center y coordinate of spiral (dbu's)
direct = "CCW" ; "CW" for clockwise, "CCW" for counterclockwise
;
; Don't edit below this line
pi_val = (4.0 * atan(1.0))
point_ang = 0.0
point_rad = (spac + (width / 2))
end_ang = (turns * 2 * pi_val)
rad_inc = ((width + spac) / point_per_turn)
ang_inc = ((2 * pi_val) / point_per_turn)
if(direct != "CCW" ang_inc = (0 - ang_inc))
l_vertices = list(list((center_x + point_rad) center_y))
while(end_ang > 0.0
point_ang = (point_ang + ang_inc)
point_rad = (point_rad + rad_inc)
point_x = (point_rad * cos(point_ang) + center_x)
point_y = (point_rad * sin(point_ang) + center_y)
l_vertices = cons(list(point_x point_y) l_vertices)
end_ang = (end_ang - abs(ang_inc))
)
axlDBCreateLine(l_vertices width "ETCH/TOP")
)
Copy the code lines into a file (e.g: spiral.il)
Edit the file (line 5-11) acc. to the spiral pattern you like to create
Load the file in Allegro. (skill load "spiral.il")
/Jan

Hi !
did anyone try Allegro RF PCB, if you just need a spiral pattern.

No takers? The only way I know of to create a spiral pattern (not with
variable trace widths) is add connect and use arcs. If you do need variable
width, creating a shape with arcs should do it.

Does anyone have a method to create a spiral cline pattern in Allegro?
