As some may be aware, Conformal Coating is an increasing necessity with modern 
circuit designs. However the cost of this is frequently high due to the need 
to either selectively coat or mask components that should not be coated.

Can anyone assist me in finding a way of including this as a design feature in 
circuit design software such as the Gerber file?

By way of explanation, should it possible to arrange the assembly so that 
connectors and other non-coatable devices are located on one edge only, then 
inexpensive but high volume dip coating techniques could be more easily 
adopted.
