Hi, I contact you to ask a question about how to use FAB 3000
Every day I use FAB 3000 and many of the gerber files I check had the next problem, my manufacturer capabilities are silkscreen width over 0.15mm is ok, but I have to change manually every day the silkscreen that is under this width of 0.15mm.
Is there a way to select all the silkscreen under my selected parameters and then change proprieties?
I do this work manually every day and is very time consuming.
Thanks, thats all my question.
Best regards,
Roberto

Silkscreen (in Gerber files) is almost always drawn with traces (using aperture for the width). You could create a selection filter, select all apertures less than 0.15mm, and change to a dcode with 0.155mm. Here's a link showing how to use the selection filter,

Note: We can automate this task in the next FAB 3000 update after running DFM Check.

Best regards,
