*FIXR

r11, r12, r13, r14

r21, r22, r23, r24

....

r11: r*8: min x-coordinate

r12: r*8: max x-coordinate

r13: r*8: min y-coordinate

r14: r*8: max y-coordinate

This card is used in conjunction with *AUTM, or *STLF to define the rectangular fixtures on the bottom of the substrate. All nodes within the defined rectangles are fixed in all 3 axes. The following figure illustrates the option.

Positioning of a rectangular constraint

Best Practices: Use *FIxR if practical, to avoid overconstraining the part.
