There may be a better way, but as I recall, moving the entire design will
force an update of all polygons. So select all, pick it up at the origin
and move it over an inch, and then back if you must. It *may* work if the
move leaves the design in the same place,

I tried drawing it at 45 degrees as a library symbol, but the pins still

You can make zero-lenght pin and draw the pins with lines. Should work.

All,
Do you find these components (in the negative quadrant) in the gerber or
pick and place outputs?

i've gone thru and hand-routed a 10-layer board from my protel

here's what i ran into: i went to correct one of the unrun traces.

Hi,
I could be wrong, but it sounds like the actual elusive traces are on
another layer that is *not* visible. When you go to route or select a net,
traces on some of the non-visible layers will temporarily appear to
fix, turn on those layers and delete as appropriate..

Hi all,
how can i permanently change the defaultsettings for example components,

Though I have permenent checked in the via default menu, when placing
vias, the net name always resets to no net.
Is this normal behavior? or is it a bug?

I have had a library update cause a part to go haywire when the origin of
the library part was way off from the center of the part. This was due to
the library being imported from another package if I remember correctly.
I have had a component move off the viewable area, and found a way to fix

It is normal behavior. I just explained it in another post, and also how to

When I'm placing tracks on a mechanical layer and change the width of the

the signal layers.
It is not possible to change the layer back by using +, - or * (they
cycle through the signal layers only). So I have to stop

I had the same problem, what you need to do is use
place line instead.

Thanks Darren, just what I wanted. (I had noticed the tool button for that
function before but was not sure what it was for).
Only one problem; why does the line constraints dialogue box (TAB when
placing line) use mils for the line width when I'm working with metric
units? It's not a major
