According to the author, "it has no timebomb", therefore, it should not be

Scott-
If I read your post correctly, it appears that you are placing the
polygons and _then_ assigning them to the selected net, rather
than assigning the polygon to its final net while in the polygon
placement dialog box.
I've gotten mysterious results when trying this for overlapping

Now that I know of the P L command, I went into the PCB library editor to
create a component and the P L command does not exist! However, you can use
the P T command on a mechanical layer and if you change the width on the
fly, your current layer stays as it should.

no i don't agree that this is a bug
when you say "shouldn't it know when it's placing a mech line?"

you could wish to place a line on a copper layer (which would of course
be conductive)

too bad
although a rationalization could be that that a lib track does not have
net attributes and design rules which is largely what drives the
distinction between Place Line and Place Track in the PCB editor

There are no "lines" in the PCB editor. They're all polylines, or, in Protel

Sound like a worthy ClientBasic script for me to build. Can anyone provide with the

Dennis and the group,
I, like a few others have always used "Place Track", and hence when it was
pointed out that I should have been using "Place Line" on a MECH layer
instead, I sulked away and figured it wasn't really a bug after all, and I
should use the correct "Line" instead or "Track"
But
Does anyone have experience with NIC capacitors?
http://www.niccomp.com/
Are they a good choice for board decoupling caps?

Well, you could just modify the tool bar ... I've added a PCB:PlaceTrack
button and used the Wire.bmp image and changed the bmp image on the "Place
lines on the current document" button from the Wire.bmp to the Polyline.bmp
image.
This way, pressing the tab button after clicking on the button ...
JaMi,
I would have to agree with Dennis that this is not a bug. My counter to this
is that one could try and use lines on a schematic for interconnecting
parts. When doing a netlist, you would find nothing was connected. Protel
points this out subtly by having associated colors for those purposes
Well it is either a bug or a feature. And if it's a feature what do you use
it for?
If people are using it or it helps them then I'd like to know :-)
I say it should know what layer you are on, so if you are placing a mech
line protel can say 'Hey, they're on a mech layer, I'll bring up a

i see what you mean about the ICONs
i have never used the tool buttons so i didn't notice that
i was referring to keystrokes
certainly it would be nice to have better consistency between the
editors but at this point i guess it is academic as 99SE has presumably
been put out to pasture
Dennis
True enough Ed. I think a nice thing to do would be to change the
function of the PlacementTools Icon (in the floating menu) to be
'interactive routing' instead of placing lines. They are almost the same
thing except for the net association that occurs with interactive
routing lines.
