If you choose to have the silkscreen Outside the pads and wrapped all the way around the part you could potentially remove the placement courtyard and use the silkscreen outline instead.

But if you want both outlines, the courtyard will automatically adjust itself to be greater or equal to the silkscreen outline. The courtyard will never be "inside" the silkscreen outline.

Would you like the ability to have 3 different Silkscreen Outline options?

1. Inside the pads (just like LP Wizard with a Pin 1 Dot inside the courtyard)
2. Outside the pads (just like FP Designer with a chamfer Pin 1 marker)
3. Hatched (this is the current default with a Pin 1 Line)

This question will be on our next Poll so we can see if there is a demand for this new feature.

You can turn off any drafting item by changing the line width or size to 0 (zero) in User Preferences.

But there is always a Silkscreen Line the full length of Pin 1 to denote Pin 1 location polarity.

The dot was added because of high customer demand and it's in addition to the silkscreen line by Pin 1.

Would you like a new feature that removes the line and replaces it with a Dot?

Or do you want both the Pin 1 Dot and the Line?

For PADS Layout the Pin 1 Dots are Attributes and can be freely moved in the PCB layout.

What CAD tool do you use?

Is there a reason why these silkscreen dots are outside the courtyard?

If they were moved just slightly to be near the long-side of the pin they could be inside the courtyard eliminating any chance of overlapping another part or feature.
