- Notes on Figures
- ----------------
-
- Figure.2 - This is a 3-part figure. Cells r5c5 (the S cell) and r8c8 (the
- T cell, but obscured by an arrow in 2c) should be distinguished from
- the other cells by color or grey (as opposed to black). The position
- of r8c8 in the Open list in 2c (fourth from the end) should also be
- distinguished from the other list elements (boldface, underlined,
- italic, or larger font).
-
- Figure.4 - This is a 3-part figure. Cells r3c3 (the S cell) and r6c6 (the
- T cell, but obscured by an arrow in 4c) should be distinguished from
- the other cells by color or grey (as opposed to black). The position
- of r6c6 in the Open list in 4c (at the front) should also be
- distinguished from the other list elements (boldface, underlined,
- italic, or larger font).
-
- Figure.5 - The circles in groups B and C should be deemphasized in some
- way, such as very light grey, dashed, or dotted. The focus of groups
- B and C is the straight traces, but the circles are needed to show
- what the traces are used for.
-
- Figure.7 - There should be black dots at the intersections of the lines
- with the circle. The labels A,B,C,D, and E should be as close to the
- dots as possible. The color of the line connecting at A should be
- different from those at B,C,D, and E. Ideally, the A line should be in
- red, and the B,C,D, and E lines should be in blue, but black/grey will
- suffice, if necessary. The circle should be black.
-
- Figure 8 - The text file EX1.PCB.
-
- Figure 9 - The figure that results from autorouting EX1.PCB, and printing
- the output on a laser printer. The top traces must be distinguished
- from the bottom traces in some way. Ideally, the holes would be black,
- the top traces would be red, and the bottom traces would be blue. If
- this is not possible, I think it would be sufficient to have the holes
- and top traces in black, and the bottom traces in grey. I used a high
- resolution for detail, but you'll want to reduce them in size so the
- 'jaggies' on the diagonal lines won't be so bad. The caption is "The
- circuit from figure 8 after autorouting has been done."
