| Currently FP Designer does not support custom pads and the solution is to use the PADS to CAD tool. It would be nice if there was a way to add the part to the FPX and link to the PADS .p and .d file so batch export would also include that component. |

The V2017.09 release now supports custom parts in FPX file format. All of the unique parts are now located on POD in FPX file format. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |

We're adding additional interactive graphic editing in V2018. Hopefully we'll never have to use PADS Layout ever again to build custom parts. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
