In Sprint Layout 6, How do I import macros that I download or get from other sources.
And.., does anyone have a macro for an MSOP-8 or can you tell me how to find them in the Macro list in SL6.
I should be receiving some HV7802MG-G High side current monitors soon and I want to incorporate them into a project I have started in SL6
Any help will be appreciated.
Cheers

I've worked it out.
Just drop them into C:/users/public/public documents/Layout60/Makros.

You beat me to it!
Exactly as you say.
Some footprints you just have to design yourself, and then save them as a makro - then you can use them later. I did quite a few of my own ones. If you want me to upload them as a ZIP file, let me know. It includes an MSOP-8 footprint.

Thanks Graeme. I would appreciate your Makros.
I already have some from way back but I suspect someone as industrious as yourself would have created a lot more by now.
I have just finished designing my first (test) board and was about to order from JLPCB when I decided to add more functionality (stuff, junk whatever) . This will require me to turn it into a double sided board - just to add to the learning curve.

Here you go:
MACROS(Graeme's).zip
Create another folder under MAKROS, and extract all the LMK files into it.
MSOP-8 footprint is included.
