How to connect a through hole pad to a bottom ground plane ?

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

I am using a header that is a through hole part. The pads on the bottom side are part of the "Pad Layer". I'm using a ground plane is part of the "Bottom Layer".

 

I want to connect some, but not all of the header pads to the ground plane that surrounds it. I'd like to connect it to the ground plane like my SMD pads where the Ratsnest automatically creates a dashed line around the pad to connect it to the ground plane.

 

Any idea how I can do this ?
