Turned pin sockets are a big help for that problem. > Is a way to easily declare for some components (like IC) but not for > others (like resistor) not to route on component layer but only on > solder layer ? In Eagle I used to use keepouts on the top layer around those components, and via-keepouts under the chips. In pcb you could probably get close to the same effect by drawing walls around the pins in the copper which you delete later. -- Ben Jackson AD7GD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.ben.com/ _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
