[PEDA] Exporting DWG/DXF

2004-04-26 Thread ravenrux
Greetings the List, I have been trying to export individual layers of a Protel design to DWG or DXF format. When I look at the exported files, they have all of the layers on them. Turning off the layers doesn't help. Does anyone out there know if there is a way to export only a selected set

[PEDA] False DRC Clearance Constraint Error (99SE)?

2004-04-26 Thread Ray Mitchell
Hello, I have a clearance constraint between a trace on the keepout layer and a component on the top layer set to 0mil (I've also tried -1mil) but it still gives me a DRC error between the keepout trace and the component pad that sits on top of it. This is obviously not the correct approach. S

i assume this is near a bd edge? the bd outline and keepout don't necessarily need to be coincident sometimes we either break the keepout in this situation (if the board is routed) or just bend it out a little to make the clearance negative clearances don't work Dennis Saputelli Ray Mitchell
