The Protel autorouter, like all or nearly all autorouters, does a very poor
job routing on a single layer. It is possible to force the autorouter to
keep to a single layer by placing primitives on the layer you do not want
to be routed. But the results are likely to be unsatisfactory.
Single-sided design would almost always be done manually. I've designed
many single-sided boards and typically one will move the components around
to improve the connection topology and to minimize the number of jumpers
needed.
This forum is the Open Topic Forum, not the general support forum. On the
Techserv web site, there are three forums you can join. For Protel support
questions, one should join or post to the Protel EDA Forum.
