I have indicated in the design rules that I want pin 1 on DIP packages to be
square. I have saved this one change in the default design rule file, and I
have loaded it in my test board editor screen. But nothing happens. Is
this supposed to automatically produce a square pin on all library DIP
parts? What am I doing wrong?
Eagle is pretty darn mind numbing....
Also, is the DRC just guidance, or will it actually change things like
distance from board edge? I have to frequently place pads and traces pretty
close to the board edge. I do not mind it showing me I have violated the
rule, but I sure do not want it changing anything!
