Importing Trace/Pad Data

microwave circuit drawn in SolidWorks

As mentioned a trace with width which then terminates on a pad will be first conditioned into a clean boundary. It will then be brought into SolidWorks, extruded in Z (and shifted in Z as needed)

Below you can see the trace with pads as viewed in Artwork's 3DVU.

The 3Di Description of this Trace/Pad Shape

This representation has no arcs. We will be adding arcs in a shape in the near future.
