Solder Mask rule for vias and pads

Question

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?

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.)

Hello, just use PCB Filter. Than you can select Vias or Pads. Than you can edit tenting within PCB Inscpector ( F11).
