Functions
void	SpreadFootprints (std::vector< FOOTPRINT * > *aFootprints, VECTOR2I aTargetBoxPosition, bool aGroupBySheet=true, int aComponentGap=pcbIUScale.mmToIU(1), int aGroupGap=pcbIUScale.mmToIU(1.5))
	Footprints (after loaded by reading a netlist for instance) are moved to be in a small free area (outside the current board) without overlapping.

Function Documentation

SpreadFootprints()

void SpreadFootprints	(	std::vector< FOOTPRINT * > *	aFootprints,
		VECTOR2I	aTargetBoxPosition,
		bool	aGroupBySheet = true,
		int	aComponentGap = pcbIUScale.mmToIU(1),
		int	aGroupGap = pcbIUScale.mmToIU(1.5)
	)

Footprints (after loaded by reading a netlist for instance) are moved to be in a small free area (outside the current board) without overlapping.

Parameters

aBoard	is the board to edit.
aFootprints	a list of footprints to be spread out.
aTargetBoxPosition	the position of the upper left corner of the area allowed to spread footprints
