是怎么回事啊！

Same Segment Start and End Point Warning
Reply How do I get rid of these warnings?  They seem to happen with the edges of auto-generated fills. There are usually dozens of them on layers with ground fills.  I've historically ignored them, but they are annoying me.

My design accuracy is 3 decimal places.  My units of measure are mils.  My RS274X gerber output accuracy is 5 decimal places.

Reply You should get this reported to Cadence, or your Cadence VAR, to get this investigated futher. It might be configuration or design related but the Cadence folks should be able to get to the cause of the issue and come up with some resolution.

Re: Same Segment Start and End Point Warning
Reply      Just a thought...by chance was anything brought in from AutoCad file.  I know when I have worked between Layout to AutoCad to PCB Editor and had a square drawn translating to AutoCad it would add a dot at the end point of each line.  Could this be the problem
Have a good day, Ken Capture 16.5 S022, Layout 16.2.0p001, PCB Editor 16.5 S025

Re: Same Segment Start and End Point Warning
Answer Reply When you state that your desing has an accuracy of 3 do you mean that in the Design tab of the Design Parameter Editor the Accuracy = 3 or do you mean 0?
If your design is in MILS with an accuracy of 3 that equals .000001 inches and your output is 5 decimal places or .00001 inches which is one decimal place less than the design is at.
When using Raster based artwork you should use an accuracy in the design that will allow the artwork to generate the data without the possibility of rounding down. Generally the use of a MILS 1 database (.0001 inches) or equivilent will eliminate any problems with rounding down data.

Re: Same Segment Start and End Point Warning
Reply Rik Lee, Accuracy = 3 in the Design Parameters Design Tab.
I changed it to Accuracy = 2 (accuracy of 0.00001" ) to match the 5 decimal place artwork accuracy (0.00001" ) and that got rid of the warnings.  Now I just have to go back and fix the 171 DRC Errors that changing the accuracy generated.  
Thank you very much.  Life just got a bit easier.

Re: Same Segment Start and End Point Warning
Reply Mark,
I'd suggest, when using raster artwork, that you desin in no greater than an accuracy of MILS 1 (.0001 inches). This will allow your artwork accuracy to generate data at the full precision of it's output without the possibility of rounding down data.

这个format参数和NC parameters里面的要一致  不然就会有告警

  谢谢 已解决。
