> The seventh value inside of Pad[  ] is defining the shorter side of a rectangle around the pad, which has no solder mask inside. In your case it was 3. Without a unit, 3 would result in 0.03mil, so pretty small. You could change the value to something like 130mil and the pad will be free of solder mask (for reference: the pad width is 120mil). You should also probably change the clearance around the pad, it's currently 20 so 0.2mil, however you'd only need to do this if you have a copper filled area on one of either the top or bottom layer (only used for that). However the clearance value is not the sidelength of a rectangle, it's the space on each side combined.
