Same net shape to via spacing when a via edge touches the shape: how to set the shape to void the via edge?

avant

If a via touches the edge of a shape on the same net, how to set the shape to void around the via?

  • Hi.

    Normally if the via is of the same net name as a dynamic shape then by default if the shape touches the via it will connect because it is of the same net name. However
    you could apply a property to the via so that it will not allow a connection to a shape of the same net name. The result will be that the shape will clear the via.

    To do this select a via and right click it and choose properties. Add in the property NO_SHAPE_CONNECT and the shape will completely clear around the via.
