<enbloc> 15:43:56> if lettering on a surface mount component is backwards, does that mean that the component is in fact on the bottom surface layer? I just auto placed, I wouldn't have expected it to do that
<Bushman> 15:48:22> is it surface mouted component?
<Bushman> 15:48:57> *mounted
<Bushman> 15:49:19> enbloc: wake up!
<enbloc> 15:49:29> yes
<enbloc> 15:52:01> wake up!
<enbloc> 15:52:13> :)
<Bushman> 15:55:15> i don't have to
<Bushman> 15:55:27> it's you who need to pay attention to his problem :D
<Bushman> 15:55:49> if it IS surface mounted then it should be reversed by default
<Bushman> 15:56:02> cause then you actualy place the part, you flip the board
<Bushman> 15:56:23> if you want to put it on the top layer, you need to tell him that
<Bushman> 15:56:29> what software?
<enbloc> 15:56:31> some are, and some aren't.
<enbloc> 15:56:34> PCB
<Bushman> 15:56:50> PCB what?
<enbloc> 15:57:33> gtk, v20100929
<Bushman> 15:58:01> ok, you'r confusing me
<Bushman> 15:58:15> i've asked what software are you desiging the board in
<Bushman> 15:58:34> is it eagle? protel? gEDA? etc.
<enbloc> 15:58:55> gEDA
<Bushman> 15:58:59> good
<enbloc> 15:59:17> hence the well chosen simple moniker 'pcb' that confuses the heck out of people and search engines alike
<Bushman> 15:59:21> then i have no idea how to flip it since i use eagle :P
<Bushman> 15:59:58> um...
<Bushman> 16:00:25> moniker?
<enbloc> 16:01:25> name
<Bushman> 16:09:36> you do know what PCB stands for, right?
<enbloc> 16:10:53> yes. which is what makes it a poor choice to name one of many products that are used for creating them.
<Bushman> 16:12:03> you said you use gEDA
<Bushman> 16:12:13> make up your mind
<Bushman> 16:12:37> (btw, is there actually a software called PCB?)
<enbloc> 16:12:50> YES!!! and its the one in gEDA. I didn't come here for abuse
<-bip> 25-02-2012 16:12:53 -!- enbloc!~nps@cpe-098-122-180-142.nc.res.rr.com has left ##pcb
<Bushman> 16:13:23> -_-'
<Bushman> 16:14:22> the software is called gEDA, pcb is just a part of this software
