Route From Target Hot Key

atoddrich

Can anyone help me set up a hot key to route from target?

  • excellon1

    Sure.

    Add the following to your pcb env file. funckey x pop route_from_target

    source $TELENV
    #####
    #####

    funckey x pop route_from_target

    x is the actual hot key I assigned, assign one to suit your preferences.

    It is funny really I did this as a hot key the other day. Works great if doing a diff-pair. As you route along you can hit "x" on the keyboard and then the routes start from the other end and you can meet in the middle.

    BTW function Key is case sensitive. Using a lower case x not X above.

    All the best.

    Thanks so much! I tried something like this and couldn't get it to work. I had added qoutes  " and some other punctuation I saw on other lines of my env file for hotkeys.    Had to get back to the layout.

    I tried your line and it worked.

    Thanks again!
