A problem with routing

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 13 years ago

Hi,

 

people here at the newsgroup helped me a couple of times once ago so I

thought someone might know if there is a way to avoid the bends on

these two traces (marked with the arrows):

The routing grid is 10 mils because I have SMD elements. Is there

something I could do with these two traces or should I just leave them

as they are?

    If you remove these two traces and start routing FROM the switch (not to 

    it) the copper trace will 'pick up' the grid of the switch en connect 

    perfect. You can go back to the other routing grid at the first bend. Just 

    experiment a little.
