Re: [PEDA] Protel - Drill Drawing missing holes
I've only seen this when I had some holes on top of holes. One report consolidated the holes at the same location and the other did not. Robert D. LaMoreaux MTS Systems Corp.

Re: [PEDA] Protel - Drill Drawing missing holes
Thanks for the tip--but what is the 'hole size editor' and how do I run it? I don't see it anywhere in the menus or help...?? -- >>> REFLECTIVITY IS MOVING! SEE NEW ADDRESS BELOW! <<< Peter W.

[PEDA] Protel - Drill Drawing missing holes
Has anyone seen this problem (Protel99SE, SP6): I create the following 3 outputs from my PCB: - Drill Drawing (.GD1) Gerber - Drill Drawing 'Print Preview' - Drill Report (.DRR) file The 'Print Preview' drill .LEGEND table correctly shows that I have 1156 holes of various sizes (14 tools, to be exact, some plated, some not) The .DRR file also shows the correct info, 1156 holes. The Drill Drawing Gerber file's .LEGEND table shows 1152 holes. Four hole symbols are missing from the PCB itself, the table text actually says '1152', and one line in the table shows 4 less holes than it should. I thought at first that I was doing something dumb like looking at an old copy of the .GD1 file, but that's not it--I can change other hole locations etc and they show up in the re-generated gerber output. Also: I set up a 'minimum annular ring' rule. Unfortunately it flags as errors any nonplated holes I have on the board. I can't figure out how to make it filter out the nonplated holes from the rule check. * Tracking #: 22CA86623D833C478421BE18812A06EDFBF9EC43 * -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
