Improving module editor: Simplify complex package drawing

 

Hello,

i am advanced smd user. As SMD Packages are getting quite more complex is adding these new cases the conventional module editor a real challenge. Please have a look at a WDFN-8 Package.
Package drawing: http://www.onsemi.com/pub/Collateral/NTTFS4821N-D.PDF
If you take a look on page 6, the Drain-Part is a complex poligonal.

My concret wish: A option "poligonal pads" for the module editor, where I can draw this pads by hand. With this tool complex drawings, like WDFN-8 cases can be possible. Can you please implement such a feature in the module editor?

Would be a great help!
Michael
