Cline2shape need changed to Board Outline Layer

Hi Group,

I have this cline2shape.il file from years past. We changed it to convert a cline to shape on ROUTE KEEPOUT_ALL and has worked great for years.

Now, I would like to change it to convert a cline to BOARD GEOMETRY > OUTLINE but it fails and reports cannot create a “filled” shape on this layer.

Please see both attached files.

 

Question, does anyone know how to make this file do the following.

1.      Display BOARD GEOMETRY > OUTLINE LAYER and ROUTE KEEPOUT_ALL layers.

2.      Convert the cline to BOARD GEOMETRY > OUTLINE layer as a “unfilled” shape.

3.      Z-Copy the BOARD GEOMETRY > OUTLINE shape to a “filled” shape on ROUTE KEEPOUT_all layer. (expanded 5mil larger than outline.

When all said and done, we should have a routed channel on OUTLINE layer with Route Keepout_All shape 5 mil larger.

Thanks in advance!

Mark
