> If that's impossible, what would be a good workaround? Put in a via without a thermal. The only reason you'd need a thermal is if you're hand soldering it, and even then you'd just need a bigger iron tip. Wave soldering might have a problem with it too, but reflow soldering (the only way to solder that pad *anyway*) won't because that heats up the inner layers also.

Do that :-) In fact, do it a couple of times, to make a better heatsink. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
