Hi list, I am using pcb version Jan. 27, 2005 snapshot. I met a problem when trying to use edge connector element. I created the edge connector element, and everything looked fine from the ascii file. The connector has pads on both the component side and the solder side. I place the element on board, and the ratnests looked fine too. Then I chose the solder side, chose the line tool, and started to draw a line, with the starting point on one solder side pad. But It seemed that the software did not allow me to draw a line as described above. I had no problem to draw a line from the component side pad. I made a test file with only two small elements. Please take a look and let me know how to work around the problem. Thank you very much! file attached as a .zip file (4kB only), which includes, 1. TESTEDGE.sym the schematic symbol 2. testedge.sch the schematic 3. TESTEDGE the new library style element file 4. testedge.prj project file for gsch2pcb 5. testedge.net netlist file generated by gsch2pcb 6. testedge.pcb the pcb file You might want to open testedge.pcb with pcb, then try to draw a line as I described. Thank you again! vax, 9000
