Okay, I have a very tight layout. Real estate on the board is premium. I need to be able to run quite a few vias directly into a "same signal" pad on an SMD component.
Distance in DR's is set to 0 for same signal.
Board is set up to do this, but when I route to one of these points and try to place a via, I get the "big yellow X" instead. I do not have blind and buried vias enabled (MicroVia set to 9.99mm) and this is a 6 layer board (1+2*3+14*15+16). Via should go from layer 1 to 16, and works fine unless I try to put it at an SMD pad.
How do I get the editor to allow a Via In Pad?
Gone through the manual again..check.
Browsed the forums and found one where someone was asking about Via in Pad for BGA's, but when I try that solution, DRC has a conniption fit, and then I have one.......
