Hi All
> When I was a kid I started out drawing PCBs by hand with graph paper. No
way I would go back to that now!
I still use that method having got used to it over the years on both small
and large boards and having developed a habit of drawing the circuit
diagram in a logical manner the layout mostly falls out from that. Also I do not
like leaving critical RF layouts to an auto-router.
Diptrace does have a facility for laying out PCBs manually when viewed from
the solder side so that aligns nicely with the graph paper method that I
am used to.
Regards
Bob
