Two ways: 1. Draw thick lines through the pin, overlapping the thermal webs. 2. Edit your .pcb file and change the Thermal[] line from 0.5 to 1.0 or larger. A setting of 0.5 makes the webs as wide as the clearance gap. Bigger settings make bigger webs. Unfortunately, it's a board-wid

Hi all, I have some large currents and I have 0.250" mounting holes to connect to the ground plane. I can reduce the clearance using "shift k" but I'm not able to get a substantial thermal relief. The four traces from the pin annulus to the ground plane are so thin that they may evaporate
