Hi everyone,

How to draw a elliptic pad that has a elliptic via in Eagle. I tried many ways, but they did not seem right. Thank you.

    Very carefully .... :) Maybe with "milling" ?

    There are oval pads with holes in them. The library tool will let you make components with oval, circular, or square pads.

    Pads can be sqaure, octagonal, circular, oval (hole centred or offset).

    Vias can only be sqaure, octagonal or circular.

    Pads and vias are separate for 2-layer boards I believe - is this multilayer?
