[PEDA] FW: Printing Issue

Whenever I print a PCB in Protell99SE, 8 gray rectangles are printed diagonally across the page. When I print a schematic or a BOM or anything else they don't appear. Has anyone seen this problem? Is there a fix? Thanks, Nick Cobb * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To

Re: [PEDA] Autoroute error message

I figured out the problem. I had to add a rectangle around the board so that the autorouter would initialize. Then when autorouting it placed tracks right through the arc on the keepout layer. Why would the autorouter ignore keepout arcs? It doesn't make any sense to me. Nick -Original Messa

[PEDA] Autoroute error message

I know I have seen this error before but I can't remember how to fix it. When I try to start the autorouter it tells me that one or more connections cannot be routed due to design rule violations. I have checked the border of the board and it is fine there are no gaps and the outline is on the kee

Everyone, I am making a board that has internal power and ground planes and I would like to make an island that is isolated from all layers on my board. I have made a split plane of both the power and ground to have the isolated +5, and isolated gnd. I just don't know how to keep the gnd
