Hello,
I want to produce a custom shaped PCB by aisler.net (former fritzing.fab). I did this for createing the PCB:
http://fritzing.org/pcb-custom-shape/
frintzing can handle the custom shaped board.
But on uploading to aisler.net , I get this error message:
I already added a “dimensions” layer to my svg. It has the same content as the “silkscreen” layer.
But the error message remains.
Can anybody help here?
My best regards,
Matthias
Hi,
I figured it out: You need a sub-elelement named “boardoutline” in the board section:
g id=“board”>
<polygon id=“boardoutline” fill="#CFCFCF " points="0,0 8447,0 8447,3981 12919,3981 12919,12939 0,12939 "/>
It said that in the instructions…
You need the layer: “board” with the object “boardoutline”. this needs to be a single object.
Layer: “silkscreen” is the top of the board and the Layer: “silkscreen0” is the bottom, Silkscreens can have as many objects as you would like.
<g id="board">
<path id="boardoutline"/>
</g>
<g id="silkscreen">
</g>
<g id="silkscreen0">
</g>
I don’t know why you have been working on this for a few days… It only takes a few minutes to make one… Just kidding…
See attached, This is a Donut I made for andy, http://imgh.us/Andys_Donut.svg , to see how it is written.

Hi, I see.
Btw: how do you post xml code in this forum? I did not get this working.
Best regards,

You can’t, for some reason the forum could never get .svg files to import. As a work around we generally use Dropbox, Google, Free New PNG Images with Transparent Backgrounds - FastPNG.com , or some kind of cloud storage link…
Awesome that you found a solution!
Would you mind marking this thread as [SOLVED] so anyone with the same question will know that they can find an answer here right away?
Cheers,
