P99SE is not the only one with problems in that area, I've seen it with older programs too. Most of the times when I come across it switching to the top layer beforehand helps. At least for me ;) Could it be that the component on the top is locked? Just a wild guess.... Beware though, DRC might have a problem with the pad centers aligning perfectly, too. I once lost a board that way...:( Success, Leo Potjewijd hardware designer Integrated Engineering Paasheuvelweg 20 NL-1105 BJ Amsterdam Zuidoost The Netherlands T: +31 20 4620755 F: +31 20 4620756 E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I: www.smart-ID.com ____________________________________________________________ You are subscribed to the PEDA discussion forum To Post messages: mailto:[email protected] Unsubscribe and Other Options: http://techservinc.com/mailman/listinfo/peda_techservinc.com Browse or Search Old Archives (2001-2004): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] Browse or Search Current Archives (2004-Current): http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]
