Solder Mask rule for vias and pads

opeongo73
opeongo73 over 8 years ago

I would like to have my THole pads with a pull back of 3mils and the vias tented by -1mil. I can't see any way this can be done

as vias don't come up in the selections. You can It select each via and do it but that's crazy.

 

Does anyone know how to do this?

    Here's an example of how to setup a rule that has -1mil clearance for pads with holes, and the default 4mil for SMT. Save it in a .RUL text file, add more lines or changes those to get what you need then…

    Sounds like you just need to setup the relevant rules for pads and vias.  To differentiate between through hole and smt pads will probably require a second selection criteria based on hole size (just a thought as I haven't actually tried it.)
