Shouldn't that be a .fsm instead of a .bsm? As a .fsm it can be added to
a padstack like the circular ones.
It looks like Cadence hasn't caught up on all of the weird things
"Librarians" are asked to do.

Hey Mitch,
I created my slotted thermal flash in a similar way, from two circular
ones.
I was just wondering if the auto way possible.

Hi Gary,
I used the "make thermal" SKILL routine (mkth) and added a circle
thermal.
I removed the top/bottom etch shapes, and added some rectangle shapes
top/bottom I can generate a "slotted" thermal flash in a matter or
minutes. I might not be "blonde" perfect, but I'd use it if I needed to.
Good day.
Mitch
