Thermals on isolated vias

autodeskguest

Can anyone tell me how to apply thermals to isolated vias connecting ground

planes?  I don't want to turn on "Generate thermals for vias" option in the

DRC.  Thanks.

  • Hello T.Strothmann !:

    ...

     

    Why argue with it?

     

    Me ?????

     

    The user has the control.

     

    ??????

     

    It should be possible to set

    the VIA characteristics in a way that it 1. disables thermal generation

    regardless of other settings, 2. enables them regardless of other settings,

    and 3. enables or disables them according to "Global Design Rules" (note,

    NOT the DRC). Another nice example for this is the STOP flag (see "Re: STOP

    flag, vias with and without stop mask" in eagle.betatest) - same "ON -

    AUTO - OFF" scheme here. Once more: if at all, such modifications need to be

    controlled by "Global Design Rules", not by the "Design Rule Check".

     

    Yes.

     

    It's

    about time to fix this terrible conceptual flaw!!

     

    :-D ! IMHO last time ....

     

    But the shortest way is possibility to disable the stupid global flag

    for each polygon separately.

     

    regards
