pfile = pcbFileRead('native_ExampleBoard_Allegro')

pfile = 
  pcbFileRead with properties:

           FileName: 'native_ExampleBoard_Allegro'
          NumLayers: 5
         MetalLayer: [1 3 5]
    DielectricLayer: [2 4]

         NumCadnets: 7
       NumPadStacks: 6
      NumComponents: 8
           NumParts: 5

Get the pad stack list

Use the padstackList function

stacklist = padStackList(pfile)
