Using the FAB 3000 Selection Filter you can pinpoint which specific objects are select by shape, width, or height.
1. Go to FAB 3000 Selection Filter (menu: Edit / Selection / Filter...). The Selection Filter is also available on the FAB 3000 toolbar.
2. If you wish to only select rectangle pads with a width <= 0.025 inches but greater than 0.005 inches it would appear in the shapes option as: Rectangle,width<=0.025,width>0.005 (see below)
Adding an aperture shape is optional: If you wanted to select all aperture shapes with a height greater than 0.1 and width greater than 0.025, you would enter the following: height>0.1,width>0.025
Here are the 10 available Width and Height operators:
width<
width>
width<=
width>=
width=
height<
height>
height<=
height>=
height=
Note: Multiple Parameters must be separated by a comma.
Filter Name: You can save these selection filters as a name, so when you use FAB 3000 again in the future, just select the saved filter state.
Tutorial Movie (no sound): Here's a sample movie tutorial showing a problem where the minimum feature width on a silkscreen must be 0.3mm wide. Using Selection Filters you can easily select any object less than 0.3mm, and then assign a new aperture shape that is 0.3mm
