Prevent PLANE with STOP?

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

Hello,

 

I'm a 1st-time Eagle 6.5 user...

 

I'm using a 0603 package and want to edit it so that my PLANE does not enter a specific area of the package. I drew the area that I don't want the (top) PLANE to go and assigned tSTOP to this area, resaved the package, and it updated on the BRD (I see my newly drawn area... however, the PLANE still is filling in this area.

 

What layer should I assign the specific area to in order to prevent the PLANE from going there?

 

Thank you!

    Sort-of experimented with this and it appears that tRestrict performs this function... anything else I should know?

    This is all in the manual...

     

    xPlace     Silk screen

    xStop      Solder mask (negative image)

    xCream     Solder paste

    xKeepout   Restricted area for components

    xRestrict  Restricted area for tracks & vias

     

    Try "help layer" for the full list

    This is very helpful, thank you.

     

    I'm using the eval version... I used Eagle CAD ~15 years ago for a small project and swore I would never use it agian being very frustrated (at that time) with creating any custom parts using the library, HOWEVER, decided to try it agian and am finding it to be MUCH MUCH more user-friendly and this forum is AWESOME!

     

    Thank you for everyones help!
