Re: gEDA-user: Problems with a TDSON8 footprint



   I'm attaching the symbol and am laying out the board.  None of the pins
   that tie to the big pad are orange, only the big pad and when I click
   on the board the orange goes away.

       My suspicion would be that you have the fet the wrong way around
     or the
       pads are not assigned correctly in the footprint or symbol.

         I am using an Infineon power mosfet in a voltage converter.  I'm

       attaching
         the footprint that I made also.  I'm having trouble with PCB
       making the
         big pad orange when I optimize rats.  The big pad lays across
   each
       pad
         for each pin.
         How can I do this?  Suggestions?  Or, since only the big pad that
       lays
         across the pads for each pin turns orange, should I just ignore
       this?
         Thanks
