Hi.
I just discovered something strange:
I like my vias tented so I keep the tenting checkbox in the default via
settings dialog checked.
While interactively routing a PCB I noticed that the automatically placed
vias did not get tented (and the forementioned checkbox is still checked)
I do
Hey guys,
I've got a problem I can't figure out. We do a lot of interconnect with wires
soldered into a single pad. We generally designate them as E?.
I cannot figure out how to relate the pad to the schematic. I've tried using the one
pin CON1 out of the library. I've tried naming a
maybe the pad of the E is not the same number as the pin of your
one pin

I'm guessing your PCB object is a free pad???
I'm also guessing you don't have a PCB footprint defined in your 'CON1' sch
part??
An object on the schematic needs to match an object on the PCB. If you use
the CON1 sch part, you need to assign a footprint to it. I have a footprint
called PAD100

Yes, I have. I've even gone so far as to cut the designator out of the net list and
paste it into the designator field of the pad. Still didn't help.
Any other ideas?

Okay, that seems to be part of the problem, but it raises another question. Does the
single pad in question have to be on the master schematic? I can get the pads on the
master to work, but the sub-drawings are still being difficult.
Thanx,

Probably the current default for vias is not set for tenting.
Check in Tools/Preferences/Defaults for the via property settings.

Sorry Brock,
just checked and is _is_ set for tenting
Manually' placed vias tent, but auto-placed vias
No they don't have to be, but I put them there. The single pad part is just
like any other part. If you can have a resistor on a schematic 2 levels
deep, then a single pad part can be there too.
I put ALL connectors at the top level because this graphically indicates
what leaves the board. I

I happen to know of a 4 month or longer assignment that requires a Protel
Designer with Protel 99SE SP6 experience. If you know of someone in the San
Diego area that could do this job please send me a resume so I can forward
it to the interested party.

the via tenting attribute (and/or the override)
will take precendence over a design rule expansion amount
as it should IMO
i have never seen one be untented mysteriously, but maybe i never
noticed it
