Hi!<br>
I wanted to use oval copper shape for pins on my PCB layout, but looking<br=

into pcb editor this does not seem to be possible at all.<br>
<br>
I tried to hack around that by adding a copper polygon in the footprint,<br=

but it looks like the file format does not support having a copper in<br>
footprints. And thinking about it it makes sense, since it cannot know<br>
the layer it will belong to.<br>
<br>
I also shortly looked into the pcb source code, but I do not see how<br>
this could be added easily enough. I suppose that we would have to add<br>
two more string flags, something as &quot;oval_horiz&quot; and &quot;oval_v=
ert&quot;, but<br>
then it looks like there are too many special cases all over the place<br>
that would need to be adjusted.<br>
<br>
Or is there a better way?<br>
