I struggle to understand what are you trying to achieve. Can you make, e.g., a hand-written drawing of the desired result? |

There are 3 pieces. They are just united for efficiency and fabrication purposes. |

They don't overlap, they are just adjacent. So I make a V-cut in the middle and I have 2 designs in the same board, since they actually are the same board. Board 3 is a spacer, made inside the dead space. |

Hello, so I found a workaround for this (done via scripting), but I need a way to tell Kikit that I need a vcut on a certain position, like a tab annotation but for vcuts. Is that possible/easy to add? Thanks in advance. |

Hello,
I've been struggling with this issue for a while, I sometimes make sandwich-like boards, so they have more than one PCB per project. I used to put them one alongside the other, like this:
test.zip
It gives me a DRC error but I don't mind (I know, not pretty).
The problem is that kikit doesn't panelize it, and I don't know how to do it. I tried multi-board project, by separating the different PCBs, it doesn't work. I tried with auto source, rectangular source, annotation source, no luck.
I also tried various shapes for Edge.Cuts layer, no luck.
A workaround I found (I still have to tried it) is: since I do scripted panelization, I could make the problematic Edge.Cuts into a User.Comment, panelize, and then switch the latter to Edge.Cuts, and then create gerbers. Not pretty but it should work. The downside of this would be that the V-cut will not be marked, and it might not be noticed.
What is the suggested solution, if any?
Thanks in advance.
