Detailed Description

Prototypes for thermal routines.

Thermals are normal lines on the layout.

The only thing unique about them is that they have the USETHERMALFLAG set so that they can be identified as thermals.

It is handy for pcb to automatically make adjustments to the thermals when the user performs certain operations, and the functions in thermal.h help implement that.

Function Documentation

POLYAREA* ThermPoly	(	PCBType *	p,
		PinType *	pin,
		Cardinal	laynum
	)

Returns:

ThermPoly returns a POLYAREA having all of the clearance that when subtracted from the plane create the desired thermal fingers. Usually this is 4 disjoint regions.
