Adjust Solder Mask Expansion from PCBLIB Inspector

tomridl
tomridl over 8 years ago

Hi,

 

I am trying to adjust the solder mask expansion value from the PCBLIB Inspector, but there is only a checkbox to for "Solder Mask Override", and then no where to enter the override value. This means that to adjust the solder mask expansion, you have to manually change it for every pin instead of for all pins at once. Please could you add the option to adjust this for all the selected pins in the inspector, as per full Altium. Bit of a mission changing 100 pins manually! Does anyone know of another way to do this without using the inspector?

 

Thanks

    I can remember, that in Altium you had an option to adjust the value from the PCB inspector and was looking for the same in CircuitStudio, but as you say, that option has been removed. I did a fast google search and found a screenshot from Altium. Also made a screenshot from the inspector in CS. It is kind of annoying how specific features are randomly removed in CS!

    But as mentioned above you can define rules for specific pads. How I currently do it: In the PCB go to "Classes" --> Create a "Pad class" and add the pads to the class for which you want to have a specific mask. --> Create a new "Mask" rule with higher priority and chose "Where the object matches" "Pad class" --> Your pad class.

    The override was in earlier versions of CS. Might be bug?
