export_to_ipc2581#
- Edb.export_to_ipc2581(ipc_path=None, units='MILLIMETER')[source]#
Create an XML IPC2581 file from the active EDB.
Note
The method works only in CPython because of some limitations on Ironpython in XML parsing and because it’s time-consuming. This method is still being tested and may need further debugging. Any feedback is welcome. Back drills and custom pads are not supported yet.
