I have run into a situation where I have a thru hole component that needs surface
mount pads associated with them also. I have created the component in the library and
then attached copper pads to the same area as the thru hole pads. When I import the
component into the PCB layout I get design errors associated with it. Does anyone
know how to overcome this problem?
On another note, and in the same design, I have manually swapped power pins on a
component. One of the power pins should be connected to an internal plane, but it
will not connect properly (no thermal relief, copper pours around the via). All of
the power pins in the vicinity of this via connect properly, however, nothing I do
seems to work to get this via to connect. Any thoughts on this one?
